Random variations in catchall not really random

Ferryman

the randomness of the inserted dot is not really random. I took a stupid long fictional email:
thisisalongandboringstringtotesttherandomizationofthecatchallgenerator@gmail.com
and ran it through the variation generator. The result:

the second time the result was exactly the same. Any chance it will just make insertions of the dot in random places and random quantity and give us an option to choose how many variations we would like generated?
*cough*It would allow me to ditch my random generation script with import and just use one button *cough*

Sven

Well who said it would be random? It inserts one point at all possible places. That usually generates a lot emails...more than you would need for a project in my eyes.

Ferryman

Sure, no-one said it would be random. Just if you have 20 projects using the same email and an email login that is 20 characters long with one dot in every possible place you might as well not have used the random generator at all and insert separate addresses for each project instead. It kind of defeats the purpose imo

Sven

next version creates a more random selection here.
