Guessing an MIT E-Mail Address

Here's a method that will usually give you a valid e-mail address if you have a URL:

• If the URL starts with http://www.mit.edu/people/, use the portion of the URL after that, up until the next '/', and add "@mit.edu" at the end. For example, for the URL http://www.mit.edu/people/sipb0/foo/bar/baz.html, the e-mail address is sipb0@mit.edu
• If the URL starts with http://www.mit.edu/~, use the portion of the URL after that, up until the next '/', and add "@mit.edu" at the end. For example, for the URL http://www.mit.edu/~sipb0/home.html, the e-mail address is sipb0@mit.edu
• If the URL begins with the format with http://web.mit.edu/name/www, extract the name (i.e., the part between "http://web.mit.edu/" and "/www"), and add "@mit.edu" at the end. For example, if the URL is http://web.mit.edu/sipb0/www/, the e-mail address is sipb0@mit.edu
