I cannot reproduce this:
>>> IS_EMAIL()('x')
('x', 'enter a valid email address')
>>> IS_EMAIL()('x...@x.com')
('x...@x.com', None)
>>> IS_LIST_OF(IS_EMAIL())(['x'])
(['x'], 'enter a valid email address')
>>> IS_LIST_OF(IS_EMAIL())(['x...@x.com'])
(['x...@x.com'], None)
>>> IS_LIST_OF(IS_EMAIL())(['x#x.com'])
(['x#x.com'], 'enter a valid email address')
can your print form.errors? Perhaps this is a problem with the widget and
not the validator.
