The regex will now skip anything with an '@'in the filename on the
assumption it's already in the correct format. Uncomment the os.rename line
once you're satisfied you won't mangle anything.
import glob
import os
import re
for filename in glob.glob('*.abook'):
newname = filename
newname = re.sub(r'[EMAIL PROTECTED]', '@domain.com.abook', filename)
if filename != newname:
print "rename", filename, "to", newname
#os.rename(filename, newname)
