Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/filter.filters.validate
---
It would be nice to document here the fact that FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL will reject addresses like 'user@host', despite the fact that they are valid as per RFC5322

See the discussion in https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=49576 (especially the last 4 entries)



Test script:
---------------
var_dump(filter_var('user@host', FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL ));



Expected result:
----------------
string(9) "user@host"

Actual result:
--------------
bool(false)

Will this be fixed or will there be a FILTER FLAG to distinct between localhost / localnet mail addresses and public ones ?

For now, I'm going to fix the documentation. Adding a new flag is
left for request #69140.

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
