## Usage
|
|
|
|
```javascript

|
|
#### isEmail( value )
|
|

Tests if a `value` is an [email address][validate-email-address].

## Notes
|
|
|
|
- Validation is **not** rigorous, nor [should it be][validate-email-address]. **9** RFCs relate to email addresses, and accounting for all of them is a fool's errand. This module performs the simplest validation; i.e., requiring **at least** one `@` symbol.
|
|
- For rigorous validation, send a confirmation email. If the email bounces, consider the email invalid.
