Thanks for your patch. A scan of my mailbox reveals still quite some mails that have multiple @-signs. They seem to be sent by Outlook and Canonical's Launchpad software for example. It's not a huge quantity but it seems we shouldn't be applying a solution that fixes one case but breaks another :-) Thijs -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
