Requirements for email is different in UG and the actual application #7

Open zxisatree opened 1 year ago

In the UG, the requirements for the email field is different from the actual application. In particular, an email "emil@--.com" is valid by the UG's requirements but not by the application's error message's requirements.

Team's Response

Thank you for the report, the UG can be improved to specify that the domain name can be made of multiple domain labels (e.g. aaa@bbb.ccc.ddd.com). However, the example the tester gave of "emil@--.com" is actually not valid according to the UG because the UG states that the domain must start and end with an alphanumeric character.

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: Yes, the bug report states that there is a difference between the actual application and the documentation. As you have stated, the documentation is wrong and does not match the actual application, thus it is a bug. There are other examples of valid email addresses that fit the UG's explanation but not the application's requirements. For example, "emil@a--aaa.com" starts and ends with an alphanumeric character but is valid.
