fred@site2.example

NOTE: the last example shows a now deprecated convention of
putting a poster's full name in a comment following the mailbox,
rather than in a phrase at the start of that mailbox. Observe
that the quotes around the "John D. Smith" example were
required, on account of the '.' character, and they would also
have been required had any UTF8-xtra-char been present.
