See extensions/GCC/lib/Constants.pm, BLACKLISTED_DOMAINS.  The idea is 
that users of a range of typically free webmail domains have to go through 
the manual account creation process, while users with other domains 
(personal, corporate, academic, etc.) can typically create their own 
accounts without needing manual approval.  Note that the message in 
template/en/default/account/create.html.tmpl about account creation 
failure (customized for GCC) says "If creating an account fails" - whether 
it fails depends on the domain (and 
template/en/default/global/user-error.html.tmpl has the message given if 
an attempt to create an account fails, again customized for GCC).
