The email validation in EmailTypeConverter is very weak, it uses the 'no validation' constructor in the JavaMail InternetAddress class instead of the one that validates emails.

InternetAddress address = new InternetAddress(input);

should be replaced with

InternetAddress address = new InternetAddress(input, true);
