...suck? I can think of all kinds of situations in which people need to get e-mail addresses quickly from their own files when they don't have the addresses in their contacts list, for completely legitimate reasons. Just because a tool can potentially be abused for spamming purposes does not make the tool evil. It's the actions of the spammer that are bad.

Someone in a weird one-time situation like that can do just fine with grep.
This tool clearly isn't designed for that person.
