http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29787 Emailvalidation doesn't accept umlauts and the new generic top level domain names Summary: Emailvalidation doesn't accept umlauts and the new generic top level domain names Product: Struts Version: 1.1 Final Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Validator Framework AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello We're registering a problem with the built in email validation in the validator framework. The problem an be split up in two pieces: 1. the validation rejects email addresses with umlauts like [EMAIL PROTECTED] The use of umlauts in a domain name ist allowed (so called idn's, Internationalized Domain Names, see rfc 3454, 3490, 3491, 3492) 2. the validation rejects email addresses with generic toplevel domain names like .info, sample: [EMAIL PROTECTED] will be rejectet by email validation. For us, it's a little bit a show stopper, because our applications addresses customers in europe, where practically every native language has umlauts, and we have also clients who can't register in our applications because they have .info as toplevel domain. Thank you. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
