If they are concerned, they are probably doing the wrong thing. The syntax of email addresses is defined in RFCs 5321 and 5322. Most relevant are: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5321#section-4.5.3.1.1 http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5321#section-4.5.3.1.2 http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5321#section-4.5.3.1.3 http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5321#section-4.5.3.1.4 -- Viktor.
