Too strict emails validation

[demon101]

In the plugin for emails validation InternetAddress.validate used. this is a very strict check.

since 2012 you can use international characters above U+007F, encoded as UTF-8.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3844431/are-email-addresses-allowed-to-contain-non-alphanumeric-characters

But with current validations, unicode symbols are forbidden at all

From my point of view, better to use apache.commons EmailValidator.

It would be better to do this changes in grails-core.

In grails for email validation EmailVlidator used. For internet addresses InternetAddress used. for example, in domains, emails constraint works correct (EmailValidator used)

And I think, this is a bug

[kefirfromperm]

Oh, yes, I understand

[kefirfromperm]

Unfortunately EmailValidator doesn't support mailboxes. :( So I combine two methods.

@kefirfromperm what is it "mailbox"?

[kefirfromperm]

For example "John Smith \john.smith@example.com\"

I think, the issue can be closed

with new version of plugin I have got following error:

16:03:45.676 WARN -- [ main] gEmbeddedWebApplicationContext : Exception encountered during context initialization - cancelling refresh attempt: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'grailsApplicationPostProcessor' defined in com.avax.Application: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [grails.boot.config.GrailsApplicationPostProcessor]: Factory method 'grailsApplicationPostProcessor' threw exception; nested exception is org.grails.core.exceptions.GrailsRuntimeException: Failed to introspect class: class grails.plugin.asyncmail.Application 16:03:45.690 ERROR -- [ main] f.s.DefaultListableBeanFactory : Destroy method on bean with name 'org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.internalCachingMetadataReaderFactory' threw an exception java.lang.IllegalStateException: ApplicationEventMulticaster not initialized - call 'refresh' before multicasting events via the context: org.springframework.boot.context.embedded.AnnotationConfigEmbeddedWebApplicationContext@77524ca7: startup date [Mon Jan 29 16:03:36 CET 2018]; root of context hierarchy

Looks like, you included application.groovy to the plugin. Could u delete it?

[demon101]

I have grails 3.2.11 version

[kefirfromperm]

Looks like needs to build the plugin under Grails 3.2.x

[demon101]

@kefirfromperm could you build it with grails 3.2.11, please?

[kefirfromperm]

Try 2.0.1-3.2.x
