Sigh.

Rather than creating "yet another broken regexp for parsing mail
addresses", isn't there an RFC compliant address parser available in CPAN?

One is available in Python, I'm sure there has to be one available in Perl.

In Python, I would create a dict (hash in Perl) whose keys were the domain
names and whose entries were a list of the email addresses.
