In testing, I've found that:

validators.email("stephen @example.com") == True
validators.email("step;hen@example.com") == True

@cwisdo it seems, spaces and ; a valid characters for an email's username part.

see: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2049502/what-characters-are-allowed-in-an-email-address

There's a bug though. Only email address that start with s are allowed to have space.
