Email Address with underscores are considered invalid

[edmundadjei]

email addresses with underscores are valid, but they are rejected by Email::Valid->address

code snippet

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use Email::Valid;
use feature 'say';

say Email::Valid->address( -address => $ARGV[0], -mxcheck => 1,)
    ? $ARGV[0] . " is valid"
    : $ARGV[0] . " is NOT valid";

eadjei@UX-009:~ $ ./mx.pl e.adjei@lloydsbg-workday.aplitrak.com e.adjei@lloydsbg-workday.aplitrak.com is valid eadjei@UX-009:~ $ ./mx.pl e.adjei@lloydsbg_workday.aplitrak.com e.adjei@lloydsbg_workday.aplitrak.com is NOT valid eadjei@UX-009:~ $

While underscores are allowed within name, they're not valid within domain name. This is correct per standards, and therefore module works correctly.

e-adjei@lloydsbg-workday.aplitrak.com is valid e_adjei@lloydsbg-workday.aplitrak.com is valid

I really should have checked the RFC first, my bad. Thanks, yahermann
