           Summary: [validator: email] inexisting dashes and TLD erroneously
                    accepted
           Product: Commons
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Validator
        AssignedTo: commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: hauser@acm.org


The org.apache.commons.validator.EmailValidator javadoc even says that the
erroneous TLD "d-" is accepted.

Why don't you rule them out?

3 out of 4 test values org.apache.commons.validator.EmailTest.testEmailWithDash()
seem to be similarly far from reality w.r.t. their TLDs.

Shouldn't this code attempt to comply with
- http://www.iana.org/gtld/gtld.htm and 
- http://www.iana.org/cctld/cctld.htm

similarly, "rh@abc-.-a--b.com" doesn't really appear to exist ever in practice
and still validates.
