 While testing form submission through Samsung Android devices (Galaxy S6
 Edge and Galaxy Note 5), we noticed that when user selects their email
 from the field history dropdown, it appends a space at the end of the
 email address.  This invalidates the email when using the is_email
 validation function in wp-includes/formatting.php.

 A fix I am currently using is simply adding a trim function to the email
 address in the first line of the function...

 $email =  trim($email);

 This resolves the Samsung bug and passes the email validation.  I hope
 this helps.
