Email address validation incorrectly accepts commas

           Summary: Email address validation incorrectly accepts commas
           Product: Commons
           Version: Nightly Builds
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Critical
          Priority: Other
         Component: Validator
        AssignedTo: commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: jakarta@ehatchersolutions.com


If a comma is entered into the domain part of an e-mail address, the validation 
should fail, but it accepts it fine.  The user part of the e-mail address 
correctly catches this as an error.  I tried to figure out how to fix it, but 
the regex stuff there was too convoluted to make sense out of.  But did add a 
test case to expose this in EmailTest.java:

   public void testEmailWithCommas() throws ValidatorException {
      ValueBean info = new ValueBean();

      info.setValue("joe,blow@apache.org");
      valueTest(info, false);

      info.setValue("joeblow@apa,che.org");
      valueTest(info, false);

      info.setValue("joeblow@apache.o,rg");
      valueTest(info, false);
   }
