As developers it is our duty to try to break the work of others. :cool:
One of my first jobs was to do quality assurance; it is now a natural impulse to try to break the work of others. :-D

Which wouldn't be of much use, because validation would fail, then they'd change it to ab@ab.com.
I tend to use Fuck@You.com for that.

My email address has a "-" in the bit after the "@", which confused a few sites in the old days but it seems OK these days
Somebody I know has a "-" in his name. He has had issues with that, and ever since he told me about it I have made sure any validation I do allows for as many characters as is possible.
