email validation false positive

    Using mailpress 5.3

    I apologize if this has been dealt with. If your All mails sent from email address is something like info@CamelCaseDomainName.com, the validation will trigger and an alert will come up saying “Enter a valid email!”.

    The validator is too strict, causing the false positive. Capitals in an email mx record are valid as far as I have ever seen. It may be stupid, but people do this.

    Moreover, the error returned by the validator is vague. I dont know from that error if the To: or From: address is invalid.

    So the thing to do to create a ticket for it would either be to have a better error validation message OR allow caps in the email address after the @.

    thanks, and keep up the great work.
