R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

Hmm.  You are correct.  I thought the RFC's covered this case, but apparently 
they don't.

The email package gets used in MUA contexts, where the domain part of the 
address may be omitted and the MUA must fill it in before transmitting the 
message to the MTA.  And some MTAs will fill in the local domain if it is 
omitted, so actually it applies in an MTA context, too.  So we need to support 
this case even if it isn't covered by the RFCs.

Thanks, the revised patch looks good.
