Interesting stuff, but its all HTML and JS-related - nothing much there I
can use outside that environment.

I'm dealing with bog standard e-mails which can have been sent from
almost any hardware using almost any software and at the immediate point
of interest, are being passed between by processes written in Python, C
and bash. My immediate concern is to sanitise sender addresses being
passed through a bash script, which is the only piece of the puzzle
written my myself apart, of course, from the sanitiser.
