Which is your email address?

It stucks here.
    

Does it work when you select an other email address ?

  

I've examined the script /usr/lib/gettext/user-email that verifies the  
email address. It just requires something like   *@*.*   . But whatever  
a fully qualified domain name I give, it doesn't show any messages.Could  
anyone help me?
    

You should definitely open a bug against the gettext package.
The BTS is the right place to report this problem.

Hi,

I've already tried other email addresses. It doesn't work.

But it can generate a po file with this command:
   msginit -l zh_CN.utf-8 --no-translator

I'm not able to access debian.org now, so I can't report a bug.

Thanks.
