    final l10n = context.l10n;

    final validEmailAddress = RegExp(
        r'''^(([^<>()\[\]\\.,;:\s@']+(\.[^<>()\[\]\\.,;:\s@']+)*)|('.+'))@((\[[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\])|(([a-zA-Z\-0-9]+\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,}))$''');

    _isValid = validEmailAddress.hasMatch(value);

      _shortErrorMessage = l10n.invalidMessage;

    }

    _isValid = true;
