And we all know how up to date that file is ;-)

("host -t mx openprojects.net" returns nothing)

I know, even example.org is reserved. (According to 
http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2606.txt)

<nitpicking>
Right now, we are using example.com, example.net and example.org in our code. 
(And possibly lots of other 'fake' email addresses or domains.)

e.g.
koffice/doc/kspread/index.docbook: anon@example.com
koffice/filters/kspread/latex/status.html: someone@example.net
kdelibs/kio/kio/global.cpp: www.example.org

I thought it would be a good idea to show the same address/domain in every 
user-visible text. Just to be consistent...
