[jira] [Updated] (FLEX-24197) Email Validator allows for invalid email addresses

Description: 

The EmailValidator component allows for invalid email address of '.@adobe.com' 
for example. This is the expected behavior. 

"The EmailValidator class validates that a String has a single @ sign, a period 
in the domain name and that the top-level domain suffix has two, three, four, 
or six characters. IP domain names are valid if they are enclosed in square 
brackets. The validator does not check whether the domain and user name 
actually exist. " 

As we can see .@adobe.com still meets all the requirement for our default 
validation. While .@adobe.com is not a valid email address in real world, it is 
valid as far as the program class is concerned 

The problem can be worked around by using regular expression in text field or 
custom validation class. 

ENHANCEMENT REQUEST - 

Although this is the default behavior/expect behavior of the Email Validator 
component, I would like to request that Email Validator be extended to verify 
for valid email addresses.
