["Ayoma Gayan Wijethunga (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Ayoma Gayan Wijethunga updated VALIDATOR-359:
---------------------------------------------
    Attachment: VALIDATOR-359.patch

Domain part of the email address was validated with both "isValid(domain)" and "isValidTld(domain)".  

"isValidTld(domain)" validation was added to allow email addresses such as "test@com" (format for TLD users, described in http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5321#section-2.3.5). 

Issue occurred because isValidTld(domain) validates domains with a leading dot, which was not the expected result for scenario described in rfc5321#section-2.3.5.

Attached patch adds additional check for the mentioned scenario and also adds relevant test. In addition, "testEmailAtTLD" method which was available only in deprecated "EmailTest" class was moved to new "EmailValidatorTest", with additional comments on purpose of the test.
