Description

I've a customer with .tech email who gets an invalid email error message, my validation.xml contains the following

<!DOCTYPE validators PUBLIC "-//OpenSymphony Group//XWork Validator 1.0.2//EN" "http://struts.apache.org/dtds/xwork-validator-1.0.2.dtd">

<validators>
	<field name="emailAddress">
		<field-validator type="requiredstring">
			<message key="error.email.required" />
		</field-validator>
		<field-validator type="email">
			<message key="error.email.invalid" />
		</field-validator>
	</field>
    <field name="password">
        <field-validator type="requiredstring">
            <message key="error.password.required"/>
        </field-validator>
    </field>
</validators>

After checking the documentation at
https://struts.apache.org/docs/email-validator.html it seems the pattern doesn't not include .tech domain, which I believe were introduced in March 2015:

\\b^['_a-z0-9-\\+](\\.['_a-z0-9-\\+])@[a-z0-9-](\\.[a-z0-9-])\\.([a-z]{2}|aero|arpa|asia|biz|com|coop|edu|gov|info|int|jobs|mil|mobi|museum|name|nato|net|org|pro|tel|travel|xxx)$\\b

Any workaround would be appreciated
