3989	Django seems to parse only the addr-spec production of RFC 2822	Pierre Thierry <nowhere.man@…>	nobody	"The [http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2822.txt RFC 2822] defines some productions for the grammar of electronic mail adresses. The {{{mailbox}}} production enables the use of addresses like:

{{{John Doe <john.doe@example.com>}}}

The address within brackets is defined by the {{{addr-spec}}} production, which by itself constitutes a simpler but valid address format. (see the ABNF rules and their comment in 3.4)

When I used a [http://c2i-alsace.u-strasbg.fr/contact/ contact form] in a web site powered by Django, an address satisfying the {{{mailbox}}} production was not accepted, but one satisfying {{{addr-spec}}} was. I was told on the {{{#django}}} channel that it should be an issue not specific to this site, but to Django itself."		closed	Validators	dev		duplicate		Christophe Scherrer <chris@…>	Design decision needed	1	0	1	0	0	0
