Elliotte Rusty Harold commented on VALIDATOR-368:
-------------------------------------------------
Just looked at the API docs and either way, this class needs much better
documentation explaining what is and is not considered a valid email address
including reference to normative specs. As currently written it doesn't even
indicate that it's an SMTP email address, not that there are many other kin ds
these days but historically there have been.
> Allow angle brackets in email-address validation
