It might be nice to try and validate the input, to catch typos more than 
anything. I have a script which uses the following regexps to check email 
addresses, although I didn't write it so I can't vouch for it's correctness - 
but it looks ok to me.

email_re = re.compile("[a-zA-Z0-9\.]+\@[a-zA-Z0-9\.]+")
email_name_re = re.compile("(\w|\s)+\<[a-zA-Z0-9\.]+\@[a-zA-Z0-9\.]+\>")

cheers
