<tip type="Email validation" author="Paul Cowan">
Don't over-validate email addresses. No matter how well you think you're
doing it, you'll annoy someone. And no matter how well you think you know
what an email address looks like, I'll bet you're wrong.
For example, did you know that
"fred smith"@10000001
is a syntactically valid email address? No? Then don't try to be
too clever with your regular expressions. It is.
