User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0.1
Build ID: 20120717181344

Steps to reproduce:

I tried to enter some e-mail address in a <input type="email" />.


Actual results:

Some valid address (RFC 3696) are considered invalid, and some invalid address considered valid.

Valid adress considered as invalid:
– "Abc@def"@example.com
– "Fred Bloggs"@example.com
– "Joe.\\Blow"@example.com
– user@[IPv6:2001:db8:1ff::a0b:dbd0]
– "very.(),:;<>[]\".VERY.\"very@\\ \"very\".unusual"@strange.example.com
– "()<>[]:,;@\\\"!#$%&'*+-/=?^_`{}| ~  ? ^_`{}|~.a"@example.org
– ""@example.org

Invalid address considered as valid:
– Abc.@example.com
– Abc..123@example.com


Expected results:

Valid address according to RFC 3696 should be considered as valid and invalid as invalid.

Ms2ger, _is_ there a spec for what should be valid here?
