Invalid email with invalid domain are accepted

[dohaduong]

Using command add n/K e/email@111.222.333.44444, the app still accepts the email as an invalid email, even tho the domain is clearly invalid.

Thus, as the DG/UG did not mention anything regarding this, I will consider this as a feature flaw

Team's Response

We accept this as a feature flaw however we believe that this is not in scope for these reasons:

• Emails are hardly the main aspect of TeamBuilder.
• Most users are unlikely to use IP address in their emails.
• This is a foreseeable future enhancement
• When users tries to send an email to an invalid email address, they will know right away.

Emails are also difficult to check for due to the many possible variations. Below is an excerpt of valid email addresses according to wikipedia:

We believe that this is more of a 'nice to have feature' than a feature flaw

Team chose [response.NotInScope]

• [x] I disagree

Reason for disagreement: I agree that emails are difficult to check, thus I have stated this bug is Low severity. However, it is clear that @111.222... is not a valid domain.

The team did not mention in both UG and DG that they will be improving/fixing/taking into account the complexity of valid email domain/email and thus, I would still consider this a valid feature flaw.
