R. David Murray added the comment:

I'm inclined to think it isn't worth the effort, myself.  I think a 
"validating" client would be a valuable tool, but that that isn't what the 
stdlib is focused on.  But yes, let's hear Senthil's opinion.

(That said, I am in fact adding a lot of validation capabilities to the email 
package...but in general those are only a matter of exposing the information 
about parsing failures that the code then has to recover from, rather than 
adding extra parsing to detect non-compliance.)
