                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VALIDATOR-278
             Project: Commons Validator
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.3.1 Release

This example returns true
{code:java}
EmailValidator.getInstance().isValid("[email protected]"); // hostname starts

{code}
but should return false according to 
[Wikipedia|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostname]: Hostname labels cannot begin 
or end with a hyphen.
