- tgv 5y agoI don't think I've seen a bang path since 1990. The claim "Your E-Mail Validation Logic is Wrong" is just pedantry.
- strken 5y agoWhat you've seen since the 80s ended is unfortunately only a subset of all the horrible edge cases your users will run into.

- icedchai 5y agoA little later for me. I last used bang paths in 1994, when I had a UUCP feed.
