Isn't that a bug in the system then?
Because AFAIK commas are not allowed in email addresses, or at least not in the place where it was.
Maybe a better/stricter email validator would prevent such booboos 
indeed. And if you guys are planning update the account-related script, please consider change the way "forgot password" code works:
after user submitted their email address, send a link (with some unique hash/id, which could be a MD5 hash from old email + new email, granted it would require an aditional field in the users database). The user then will require visit that address where they can change their password.
This method will help if: a) email address is no longer valid and later user remember their password. b) somebody else submitting your email, therefore messing up your current password.
The same could be applied to email change routine. It would prevent from accidents as in this topic.
