Comment:

 I'm re-opening this ticket as it seems the most appropriate location to
 discuss RFC email compliance as was raised in #46343 recently. In that
 ticket it was flagged that plugins in some cases support "RFC : RFC822
 (year 1982), 2822 (year 2001), 532x (year 2010), 653x (year 2012)" but
 these wouldn't be erasable as they don't currently pass the is_email
 check. I closed #46343 indicating as these are custom from core and to
 support these in the privacy tools they'd need to customize is_email
 there. That being said I wanted to re-open this ticket to look into
 support for the RFC compliant emails that currently aren't covered in
 core.
 Thank you
