Title: Fix email validation! Post by: dree12 on February 08, 2013, 09:30:20 PM SMF does not seem to support '+' symbols in email addresses. I attempted to put a "+bitcointalk" into my email address so that forum-related email could be filtered, but SMF rejected it.
Could this be fixed? Title: Re: Fix email validation! Post by: theymos on February 09, 2013, 03:46:47 AM It works for me.
Title: Re: Fix email validation! Post by: dree12 on February 09, 2013, 10:13:01 PM It works for me. Ah, it supports the raw plus sign but throws up when quotes and spaces are involved. I guess this issue is closed. Regardless, it seems like a terrible idea to verify email addresses. If this is to prevent SQL injection, I'm sure there are many other ways to do it.

I'm not an expert on this, but AFAIK anything before the @ is good as long as @, ", and \ are backslash-escaped and spaces are between quotes. However, it is extremely rare for email addresses to have @ or \ in them. "John Doe"@john.doe.com is a valid email address format though, so it makes little sense to reject it.

I've never personally had an email address like that, but I know people who did. Organizations in the day used quoted names as email addresses. I guess even if the RFC bans it, people still use those addresses and they should not be banned. Title: Re: Fix email validation! Post by: 21after2 on February 10, 2013, 01:13:49 AM It works for me.

Learn something new every day, I suppose. Title: Re: Fix email validation! Post by: K1773R on February 10, 2013, 01:57:31 AM It works for me.
