Copy/paste bug on my behalf. The expected result is: string(21) "test=m...@example.com" string(21) "test-m...@example.com" string(21) "test+m...@example.com" Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-11-12 14:56:05] andrew dot nicols at luns dot net dot uk Description: ------------ The filter_var function, when used with FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL marks an email address with an = in it as invalid. According to RFCs 822, 2822 and 5322, = is a valid component to the local-part of an e-mail address. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $email_address = "test=m...@example.com"; var_dump(filter_var($email_address, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)); $email_address = "test-m...@example.com"; var_dump(filter_var($email_address, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)); $email_address = "test+m...@example.com"; var_dump(filter_var($email_address, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)); ?> Expected result: ---------------- string(21) "test-m...@example.com" string(21) "test-m...@example.com" string(21) "test+m...@example.com" Actual result: -------------- bool(false) string(21) "test+m...@example.com" string(21) "test+m...@example.com" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50158&edit=1
