Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=73574&edit=1 ID: 73574 Updated by: requinix@php.net Reported by: gecko at dvp dot io Summary: FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL not RCF 5322 compliant -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Filter related PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: A fully-compliant regex is ridiculous. http://pastebin.com/2ZLehM5N Even worse, the source I used to generate that does not include support for IDNs. Besides, a perfect regex is still not perfect. http://www.regular-expressions.info/email.html What email address failed validation that you considered valid? And what regex have you constructed?

Update it or remove it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=73574&edit=1
