If you're planning to read through it and figure out exactly what is and
isn't valid you'd probably best go get yourself some supplies.
Tinned food, a sleeping bag, toothbrush and a shaving kit.
Needless to say it's not trivial.

>While you are on the topic of email formatting, I have seen addresses

>[EMAIL PROTECTED]
>[EMAIL PROTECTED] (my name)
>[EMAIL PROTECTED] <my name>
>my name < [EMAIL PROTECTED] >
>
>I think I even saw
>
>My name [EMAIL PROTECTED]

>These formats have varying degrees of success. I recently
