Description

URLValidator has been fixed with #12988. However, validate_email still fails with IDN E-mail addresses, especially with long TLDs (see ​http://idn.icann.org/E-mail_test for examples).

'1.4c1'
>>>
>>> from django.core.validators import validate_email
>>> validate_email('mailtest@xn--zkc6cc5bi7f6e.xn--hlcj6aya9esc7a')

The fix is correct. Seems we forgot to fix the domain regex for email validator when we fixed it for URLs (r15502).

About tests, I don't like seeing half of email validation tests in browser:django/trunk/tests/regressiontests/forms/tests/fields.py and another half in browser:django/trunk/tests/modeltests/validators/tests.py. I'd rather have them all in modeltests. That could be taken care of by the committer.

Fixed #17867 -- Made email validation pass with IDN domains

Thanks Pierre Matri for the report and the initial patch.

In 252cd271e88e1c60fc49c06fac9d45e4c7f8750e:

Fixed test failure after IDN domain validation fix

Refs #17867.
The address in test_email_regexp_for_performance used to take forever
(security issue), then was supposed to fail after the fix (commit 9f8287a3f).
Now we are less strict with domain validation, due to new IDN domains,
hence the validation of this address pass now.
