That's because I'm not allowed (scanner-less, fax-less & most of the time
printer-less) ;-)

Also, the E-mail validation class could need some improvement because
validating against MX records only is a bad practice, instead it should have
support for an A record (to check if the hostname actually exists) lookup
which complies with the RFC 2821 (if no MX record is found by the mail
server, the A record will be used) or if for some reason (e.g. to be more
strict) one wants to allow only E-mail addresses with hostnames that have an
MX DNS record the class should also support checking for an MX record alone.

Adding support for Windows environments requires little effort so I was
surprised to see that this hasn't been included thus far.
