AFAIK some RFC recommends to use the TLD ".invalid" for tests. Of course 
".invalid" doesn't look good in example email addresses/URLs. Why not 
use someone@kde.org or example@kde.org? Then nobody will have a reason 
to file a law suit against KDE because he's spammed with messages from 
people who read his email address in some KDE applications.
