Don't Do That.

Don't Do That, either.


We know that it is technically valid to put a close paren in an ASCII
mailbox name, but no sensible person expects that to work, and I can't
get too upset at web forms or whatever that don't allow them.* I think
we can avoid a lot of pain by starting with the assumption that EAI
addresses will be something that looks plausible in some natural
language.

R's,
