Mathieu Neron created VALIDATOR-395:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: Email address with leading/trailing space(s) are 
considered valid.
                 Key: VALIDATOR-395
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VALIDATOR-395
             Project: Commons Validator
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Routines
    Affects Versions: 1.5.1
            Reporter: Mathieu Neron
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.5.1


I recently replaced our custom email regex we were using in our project with 
org.apache.commons.validator.routines.EmailValidator, but it broke 2 of my 
cases in the unit tests I had written for it:

-"   [email protected]" expected to be invalid
-"[email protected]   " expected to be invalid

Are those considered valid in RFC1034/RFC1123? If not, a simple fix would be to 
check for leading/trailing spaces at the same location were you check for that 
the email doesn't end with a period, at line 162 or EmailValidator.java, since 
it's cheap as well.
