Please note, the email directive does not perform a host lookup nor does it conform to the RFC specification. For more sophisticated email validation, please use custom validation with L or similar. =head1 AUTHOR Al Newkirk =head1 COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE This software is copyright (c) 2011 by Al Newkirk.
