That's precisely what arch does anyway. Require valid E-mail address,
but not support all valid ones. (Related is Bug72)
This is a list of characters, that are allowed in "dot-atom" production,
as defined in RFC2822 (mail format): alphanumerics and
! # $ % & ' * + - / = ? ^ _ ` { | } ~ and of course .
And that's only dot-atom. Local part of email address might be a quoted
string!
RFC2821 (smtp) contains the same definition and only think it seems to
say is, that the recieving host is the only to assign any semantics --
thus sufficiently perverted host might actualy use the weird characters
above.
