Vidmantas Maskoliunas commented on WW-3883:
-------------------------------------------

copy/paste from FLEX-11917:
--------------------------------
Expected Results:
 The plus sign is a valid character for email addresses as referenced in RFC 
2822 (http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2822.html)
Its use has gained popularity with its support in Gmail to allow custom 
filtering.
--------------------------------

GMail allows any suffix to the first part of the email address (before @) 
separated by + sign. E.g. [email protected], 
[email protected] will both reach the [email protected] inbox.

Therefore this character should be considered as a valid one in emails, while 
EmailValidator does not take it into account and rejects +'s in email addresses
                
> EmailValidator does not allow to use + (plus sign) in emails
> ------------------------------------------------------------
