A little interesting and hopefully on topic point I found while browsing the internet at: http://www.clemburg.com/x1713.html#AEN1717
According to RFC 822 (see http://www.rfc-editor.org/),
email addresses
are case-sensitive in the part before the "@" sign, except for the
special address "POSTMASTER", which is not case-sensitive. The part
after the "@" sign is a host name, and is not case-sensitive.
Note that many organizations will implement an aliasing facility that
recognizes alternative forms for an email address (e.g., providing
"John.Doe@my.organization.com", "john.doe@my.organization.com",
"doe@my.organization.com", "Doe@my.organization.com" etc.). However,
this is not required by the standard as specified in RFC 822.
so you may want to keep that in mind....
i.e. breakup the username/alias (ereg) and domain (eregi) parts of the email
