Bug #69140 [NEW]: FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL not RFC 822 compliant

From: info at linux-web-development dot de Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Filter related Bug Type: Bug Bug description:FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL not RFC 822 compliant Description: ------------ When trying to validate an e-mail address using FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL will result in several problems with correct mail addresses. So far I could find the following compliant addresses not validating: foo@example foo@(bar)example.com foo@example.com(bar) Generally PHP should at comply with RFC 822 when validating mail addresses, otherwise the filter function is useless. Test script: --------------- var_dump(filter_var('foo@example', FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)); Expected result: ---------------- string(11) "foo@example" Actual result: -------------- bool(false) -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=69140&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69140&r=mysqlcfg
