   I do not think that is a bug.  Completing a typed E-mail address from an   
   Address Book entry is a desired feature.   
      
   On the other hand, detecting that a new entry in the Address Book has a   
   malformed E-mail address would be a nice feature.  That could be   
   reported as a bug.

   Reuters headline:  "Trump says Rudy Giuliani will receive   
   top US civilian honor."   
   Why not?  When he was mayor of New York City, Giuliani   
   moved his mistress into the mayor's mansion while his   
   wife and children still lived there.  He is indeed   
   Trump's kind of guy.
