They probably won't accept any free emailer (there are lots). What they probably want is an email dependent on your internet provider, because there's a limited number of those. (Ours has six, IIRC.) That means that a person is unlikely to have multiple accounts with the website, and probably won't waste one to create a disturbance, troll, spam, etc., which is easy to do using a throw-away email.

I've run into those, too. Luckily, I have a .com of my own, so I was able to get around it. You need to finagle or find a friend who has a .com, or maybe your ISP gave you a .com or .net (like @earthlink.com or @att.com or something...) ... Like the other answerer said, above, they're trying to avoid spammers because freebies are too easy to fetch!
