Input masks are simply not capable of the flexibility required. They
are fixed length, for one thing.

It's even difficult to write VBA code to reliably parse EMail
addresses, given the wide variety of valid ID's and domain names.
About the best you can do is make sure that there are no blanks and
exactly one @.
