e-mail addresses incorrectly declared invalid

can you give examples of the emails that are giving you errors and the exact error message? if you are concerned about privacy, try approximating the erroring email address by trading some characters around, but please make sure that the shuffled address still generates the non-valid email message.

lydiama@mac.com is the email that wouldn't pass for me. The error message is:
"lydiama@mac.com " is not a valid email address. Using drupal 5.3 with 5.x-1.x-dev email.

Hi!

I'm using this function http://api.drupal.org/api/function/valid_email_address/5 for validating email addresses. Maybe it's because of the trailing whitespace in your example.

Yep, that was it - space at the end. I wonder if the module should chop spaces off the front and end and take that when validating. It would seem this might be a common user problem when cut and pasting.

adding a trim should fix it, I'll do that as soon as possible

I added a trim to cut off whitespaces when validating the mail address. this fixes the problems here
