[jira] Updated: (VALIDATOR-273) EmailValidator does not support mailboxes at TLDs

["Chris Lee (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Chris Lee updated VALIDATOR-273:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: commons-validator_allow-tld-domains.patch

Added an additional check in EmailValidator to also pass if domain-part is a valid TLD, not just if it's a valid domain as judged by DomainValidator.

This could also be accomplished by modifying DomainValidator to say raw TLDs are valid (change a + to a * in the regex), and all unit tests pass when I did that too, but I figured this was less likely to have unintended consequences.

> According to RFC 5321 and 5322, mailboxes at top level domain names are permitted. Thus, the syntax localpart@tld is valid. Explicit text to this topic can be found in RFC 5321:
> 2.3.5.  Domain Names
>    A domain name (or often just a "domain") consists of one or more
>    components, separated by dots if more than one appears.  In the case
>    of a top-level domain used by itself in an email address, a single
>    string is used without any dots.
> Accordingly, the code
> 		EmailValidator ev = EmailValidator.getInstance();
> 		System.out.println(ev.isValid("m@de"));
> should output "true".
