-------------------------------------

             Summary: EmailValidator says addresses such as x.y@gmail are valid 
although most mail apps will fail to send it
                 Key: VALIDATOR-376
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VALIDATOR-376
             Project: Commons Validator
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Routines
    Affects Versions: 1.4.1 Release
            Reporter: Ralph Goers


The VALIDATOR-273 patch causes EmailValidator to allow addresses such as 
x.y@gmail. Unfortunately, this is causing us problems as none of the email apps 
we have tried will actually allow that email address to be sent. Although the 
RFCs may state it is valid, in practice it apparently isn't. Some sort of 
option is needed to allow providing just the domain to fail.
