Bug description:
You can start writing an e-mail address, then hit escape or otherwise blur the element, and it'll have what you wrote in there. Then when you save your profile, that e-mail address gets written out as one of yours.

I think you can even change it to be your primary e-mail address, in which case e-mails are being sent to all sorts of random addresses, e.g. if I put 'bob' in and use that, the mail will be sent to bob@server-hosting-mahara.

Not sure what the best solution is...
