OK, this isn't the main topic of this thread, but I have to remark
about the above function which was posted as an example of the code
John is using; it appears that this requires as one aspect of a "valid"
e-mail address that it have a top-level domain that is exactly 2 or 3
characters long, which would exclude addresses in .info, .name,
..museum, and some other TLDs.
