	/**
	 * @param allowDomainLiterals 
    *
  • This flag states whether domain literals are allowed in the email address, e.g.: *

    * someone@[192.168.1.100] or
    * john.doe@[23:33:A2:22:16:1F] or
    * me@[my computer] *

    *

    * The RFC says these are valid email addresses, but most people don't like allowing them. If you don't want to allow them, * and only want to allow valid domain names (RFC 1035, x.y.z.com, etc), * change this constant to false. *

    * Its default value is true to remain RFC 2822 compliant, but you should set it depending on what you need for your * application. *

  • *
* @param allowQuotedIdentifiers
    *
  • This flag states whether quoted identifiers are allowed (using quotes and angle brackets around the raw address) are * allowed, e.g.: *

    * "John Smith" <[email protected]> *

    * The RFC says this is a valid mailbox. If you don't want to allow this, because for example, you only want users to enter * in a raw address ([email protected] - no quotes or angle brackets), then change this constant to * false. *

    * Its default value is true to remain RFC 2822 compliant, but you should set it depending on what you need for your * application. *
