--- Comment #2 from Sean Flanigan <sflaniga at redhat.com> ---
As mentioned in the Hibernate EmailValidator docs, it may not be worth trying
to catch everything:
http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/validator/4.3/api/org/hibernate/validator/internal/constraintvalidators/EmailValidator.html

It is better to let an invalid address through to the mail system, than to
disallow a user's valid address.

However, to handle the edge cases better, we could replace or augment Hibernate
EmailValidator with an implementation which calls JavaMail's "new
InternetAddress(email).validate()"
