Just to follow up to put things in context.
Starting with oclHashcatplus v0.15 you have two methods to go at email addresses.
What epixoip suggests is using a combination attack and the specifying a rule for one side or the other. I didn't have access to 15 so I hadn't even considered this approach.
-a 1 username domain -k '^@'
That syntax translates to
-a 1 = combination attack
username = left dictionary
domain = right dictionary
-k '^@' = pre-pend an @ symbol to each word in the domain dictionary
Many thanks to epixoip for taking the time to go over that with me.
The other approach is a rules based approach which is the one I took.
Both approaches would appear to be viable with the only differences probably being speed.
Peace
