The only caveat with using Email::Valid is that Debian Policy explicitly
permits the non-RFC5322 address format:

    John N. Doe <j...@debian.org>

where the name component contains a period and isn't quoted.  Does
Email::Valid cope with that case?  If so, this sounds great, but we do
need to allow that.
