Finds emails of the format (and similar)

The most practical way to approach automating email scraping would be to use headless selenium, since a lot of sites now use Javascript to hide emails.

Thanks!

As for Selenium, I built this library to be small and simple. Maybe we can do that as an advanced option, but I would always rather keep the "just get it done without installing a lot of dependencies" option available.
