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.
