The easiest way would probably be to make a trigger* with the text of your email address in the first pane and the Paste with Clipboard action in the second pane.
To make this, just open QS's preferences window, go to the Triggers tab, and press the + button to add a new trigger. In the dropdown window that appears, make sure you have the first (i.e. top) pane selected and then press . to enter text mode. Type in your email address. Press the Tab key to move to the second pane, and then select Paste with Clipboard as the action. Save the trigger, set it to be a Hotkey type of trigger, and then set the key combination you want to use for it. For more information on triggers and much more besides, have a look at Howard Melman's unofficial user guide, available at http://mysite.verizon.net/hmelman/Quicksilver.pdf As a bit of advice, don't use Cmd-K for your trigger. That, and most other Cmd-(letter) key combinations, are already used in many applications. Instead try something like Opt-K or Shift-Ctrl-K. * QS can use keyboard or mouse based triggers (as well as other types, if you have the right plugins installed). A hotkey trigger is essentially a keyboard shortcut, while a mouse trigger is sort of like Mac OS X's Hot Corners on steroids.
