1//! # structured-email-address
2//!
3//! RFC 5321/5322/6531 conformant email address parser, validator, and normalizer.
4//!
5//! Unlike existing Rust crates that stop at RFC validation, this crate provides:
6//! - **Subaddress extraction**: `user+tag@domain` → separate `user`, `tag`, `domain`
7//! - **Provider-aware normalization**: Gmail dot-stripping, configurable case folding
8//! - **PSL domain validation**: verify domain against the Public Suffix List
9//! - **Anti-homoglyph protection**: detect Cyrillic/Latin lookalikes via Unicode skeleton
10//! - **Configurable strictness**: Strict (5321), Standard (5322), Lax (obs-* allowed)
11//! - **Zero-copy parsing**: internal spans into the input string
12//! - **`no_std` + `alloc`**: builds for WASM and bare metal; disable the `std`
13//! feature and enable `alloc`
14//!
15//! # Quick Start
16//!
17//! ```
18//! use structured_email_address::{EmailAddress, Config};
19//!
20//! // Simple: parse with defaults
21//! let email: EmailAddress = "user+tag@example.com".parse().unwrap();
22//! assert_eq!(email.local_part(), "user+tag");
23//! assert_eq!(email.tag(), Some("tag"));
24//! assert_eq!(email.domain(), "example.com");
25//!
26//! // Configured: Gmail normalization pipeline
27//! let config = Config::builder()
28//! .strip_subaddress()
29//! .dots_gmail_only()
30//! .lowercase_all()
31//! .build();
32//!
33//! let email = EmailAddress::parse_with("A.L.I.C.E+promo@Gmail.COM", &config).unwrap();
34//! assert_eq!(email.canonical(), "alice@gmail.com");
35//! assert_eq!(email.tag(), Some("promo"));
