Along with the above example, the inline email validation fails to recognise many other invalid entities (e.g. email) - though these seem to be picked up afterwards by java mail handling. More importantly, however, is that valid email addresses are being rejected - such as: "email"@domain.com (quoted strings are acceptable) email@[domain.com] (bracketed domains are acceptable) A test should be devised to handle all of the cases from the front-end and the validation upgraded to comply. As mentioned in the Hibernate EmailValidator docs, it may not be worth trying to catch everything: http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/validator/4.3/api/org/hibernate/validator/internal/constraintvalidators/EmailValidator.html It is better to let an invalid address through to the mail system, than to disallow a user's valid address. However, to handle the edge cases better, we could replace or augment Hibernate EmailValidator with an implementation which calls JavaMail's "new InternetAddress(email).validate()" Reassigned to PM Migrated; check JIRA for bug status: http://zanata.atlassian.net/browse/ZNTA-432 |
