Ambiguous format of Special Characters allowed in local-part of Email
Under Email field of a contact, there is the following constraint:
- The local-part should only contain alphanumeric characters and these special characters, excluding the parentheses, (+_.-). The local-part may not start or end with any special characters.
The following command is entered:
add n/testagain p/1234 e/email++yeet@gg.com
Expected: A new contact is created Actual: Error message on email constraints is given.
This could be a potential confusion for users when they need to input emails that contains multiple special characters
Another test is conducted with the following command and it worked:
add n/waterson p/1234 e/email+yeet+waterson@gg.com
Users may be confused by the email constraint message. Perhaps a better error message or better explanation in User Guide and Developer Guide could resolve this.
