Andrea, I see you fixed this for optipng in r50998, but what about  
the rest of Vincent's ports?

Are you sure no other maintainers' addresses were affected by this  
problem? If you show us how you made the changes originally, maybe we  
can determine what other ports might be affected. I'm guessing  
maintainers with hyphens in the portion before the @ are affected, at  
least. I see problems in several ports using this command:

port -q info --maintainer --name  maintainer:-

Just picking a few:

catdoc ("julian-9k.de at hal")
flashdot ("macports-elze.de at tobias")
gpsbabel ("macports-behrendt.net at michael")
gtkmm1 ("gongloo-server.no-ip.com at charlies")
httrack ("ross-williams.net at ross")

What prompted you to make this change in the first place? I'm in  
favor of obfuscating email addresses in portfiles for the sake of  
consistency and the potential reduction of spam, but up to now, we've  
left it to up to each individual maintainer to decide how they wanted  
to format their email address in the portfile. And I don't recall a  
mailing list discussion about changing that, and you didn't list a  
ticket number in your commit message.
