Description

Tiki offers a data type "email adress". This does basic syntax checking. Actually, it is VERY basic. It only checks is there is an at sign (@) in the string. A little bit more might be wished for, in order to reduce spam and clutter from anonymous users.

IMHO it should also be checked if a domain name is entered. So it should be detected whether there is a full stop after the at sign, and at minimum one letter before and after the full stop.

Now Tiki accepts a@b, IMHO it should at least check whether it is a at b.c (I would not recommend to check acutal TLDs, because they change too often nowadays.
