It's true that very few people share computers with each other. But it's still not unheard of to work in companies where you don't have to add the @company.name to the headers... But you're right that the vast majority of mails people send these days won't make it there without the @ in the address, so perhaps warning would be nice? It would have to be a configurable option, though, but would default to `warn', I think.
