Because again, that is not a valid address. The correct way to specify that
address as per the spec is: php@[IPV6:::1]

Thanks, I forgot that IPV4 only goes to 255.
What if you were to use an IPV6 address? It doesn't seem to work.
<?php
$emailwithip = "php@[::1]";
if(!filter_var($emailwithip, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) {
echo "EMAIL INVALID"; //Unexpected Result
} else {
echo "EMAIL VALID"; //Expected Correct Result
}
?>

This is not a valid email address since 123.456.789.0 is an invalid ip. Try
123.123.123.0 as a test ip instead.

Description:
------------
The FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL filter does not work as it should. If you include an
IP address in your email address it filters as not valid.
The email we use for this experiment is php@[123.456.789.0], a fully valid
email address. We also tested php@123.456.789.0 and its validates as FALSE.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
$emailwithip = "php@[123.456.789.0]";
if(!filter_var($emailwithip, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) {
echo "EMAIL INVALID"; //Unexpected Result
} else {
echo "EMAIL VALID"; //Expected Correct Result
}
?>
Expected result:
----------------
TRUE
Actual result:
--------------
FALSE
