When I say it "won't work, I mean (lifted from the 'bug report' @ CPAN:

This was tested on two machines

The problem I found is that when executing the command:

Email::Valid->address($address)

returns true when $address =
 'whatever@whatever.com{' or
 'whatever@whatever.com}' or
 'whatever@whatever.com*' or
 'whatever@whatever.com$' or
 'whatever@whatever.com#'

That is all that I tested, but I don't think that those addresses shou
+ld
return true.

So, I am not sure what to take out. I don't need the DNS check.
