        are you sure? I've been looking at Mail::Address and found nothing in
its code that hinted of ay validation. It looked like an 'address book'
mechanism, that built objects with a human-readable name and an address,
and provided a few functions on that. Not much more, and certainly not
any validation I could see. 

        as per `perldoc perlfaq9` there's no realiable way to tell a
functioning email address from a functioning diesel engine until you
actually send it.
