> the EMAIL expression in StandardTokenizerImpl.jflex misses some unusual but 
> valid characters in the left-hand-side of the email address. This causes an 
> address to be broken into several tokens, for example:
> [email protected] gets broken into "somename" and "[email protected]"
> husband&[email protected] gets broken into "husband" and "[email protected]"
> These seem to be occurring more often. The first seems to be because of an 
> anti-spam trick you can use with google (see: 
> http://labnol.blogspot.com/2007/08/gmail-plus-smart-trick-to-find-block.html).
>  I see the second in several domains but a disproportionate amount are from 
> talktalk.net, so I expect it's a signup suggestion from the service.
> Perhaps a fix would be to change line 102 of StandardTokenizerImpl.jflex from:
> EMAIL      =  {ALPHANUM} (("."|"-"|"_") {ALPHANUM})* "@" {ALPHANUM} 
> (("."|"-") {ALPHANUM})+
> to 
> EMAIL      =  {ALPHANUM} (("."|"-"|"_"|"+"|"&") {ALPHANUM})* "@" {ALPHANUM} 
> (("."|"-") {ALPHANUM})+
> I'm aware that the StandardTokenizer is meant to be more of a basic 
> implementation rather than an implementation the full standard, but it is 
> quite useful in places and hopefully this would improve it slightly.
