I’m sorry. I should have asked, “Does EmailValidator provide a way to validate an email address has a valid form for use on the public Internet?”
The latest update to EmailValidator now reports some email addresses as valid, such as, user@gmail, that were previously reported as invalid. If I understand correctly, email addresses in this form are not valid for use on the public Internet even if the part after ‘@’ is a valid top-level domain. From: Shriver, Daniel [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, June 16, 2015 1:38 PM To: Commons Users List Subject: RE: [validator] EmailValidator 1.4.1 returns true for some invalid(?) email addresses How could it possibly do that? Or to put it another way "[email protected]" is valid (RFC wise) without even the top level rule. Does any validator check that it is a real email address?
