It is possible to put things in the borrower.email field that are not
emails--"none" and "N/A" seem to be popular with circ desk staff in some
places.  Naturally, this breaks overdue_notices.pl and other scripts that send
email.  

I suggest a minor enhancement to validate the email address--not to confirm
that is a valid email, but only to confirm that it is properly-formatted!
