I don't want to drag this out, but I just thought I'd not that the
above is not necessarily true. As I mentioned in a previous post, we
run an anonymous ftp which is logged for funding reasons, and at least
90% of the users use their real email address. Even if the users
email address is bogus, you still get the site name and you can be
assured that this is valid if you authenticate the site name before
allowing a login (using reverse lookup as they attempt to login).
