Alex commented on VALIDATOR-449:
--------------------------------
302 discusses leading spaces
> Leading and trailing spaces in EmailValidator should not be valid
> -----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: VALIDATOR-449
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VALIDATOR-449
> Project: Commons Validator
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Routines
> Affects Versions: 1.6
> Reporter: Frederic Boutin
> Priority: Major
>
> I feel that:
> EmailValidator.getInstance(true).isValid(" [email protected] ");
> should return false, but the regex used in EmailValidator matches this
> string. Furthermore, the following user + domain validation is done only on
> "some" and "email.com", respectively. This is because the regex captures the
> user and domain without the space.
> I know the documentation states : "This implementation is not guaranteed to
> catch all possible errors in an email address" but, I think this case is
> simple enough to be in the validator.
