valid_email :: check if domain part is real
this can be used as an intermediate 'patch' util there is a validation
system in place.
the extra check is to verify that the domain part of a correctly
formatted email address is existing and in use. this will not at all
stop spammers since they can use bogus emails with valid domain parts
Lukas: Minor formatting changes.
