From: fillmorejd at gmail dot com Operating system: Mac Mountain Lion PHP version: 5.4.15 Package: Filter related Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Email with multiple period in a row fail
Description: ------------ Email with multiple period in a row fail validation when they are working email. With gmail you can add periods into any email address and it will still deliver. I use this to filter out messages. exam...@gmail.com is the same as exam........@gmail.com or exam....@gmail.com or exam.p....@gmail.com. With one period or if there is a letter or number between period the FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL works just fine but if more than one period it fails. Test script: --------------- <?php $email_a = 'exm...@gmail.com'; $email_b = 'exm.a.p...@gmail.com'; $email_c = 'exa......m...@gmail.com'; if (filter_var($email_a, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) { echo "This ($email_a) email address is considered valid.\n"; } else { echo "$email_a failed\n"; } if (filter_var($email_b, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) { echo "This ($email_b) email address is considered valid.\n"; } else { echo "$email_b failed\n"; } if (filter_var($email_c, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) { echo "This ($email_c) email address is considered valid.\n"; } else { echo "$email_c failed\n"; } Expected result: ---------------- This (exm...@gmail.com) email address is considered valid. This (exm.a.p...@gmail.com) email address is considered valid. This (exa......m...@gmail.com) email address is considered valid. Actual result: -------------- This (exm...@gmail.com) email address is considered valid. This (exm.a.p...@gmail.com) email address is considered valid. exa......m...@gmail.com failed -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64981&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64981&r=mysqlcfg
