No, in most cases email addresses may only contain:

  • Uppercase and lowercase English letters (a-z, A-Z)
  • Digits 0 to 9
  • Characters ! # $ % & ' * + - / = ? ^ _ ` { | } ~
  • Character . (dot, period, full stop) provided that it is not the first or last character, and provided also that it does not appear two or more times consecutively (e.g. John..Doe@example.com).

Some eMail servers (including SMTP/POP3/IMAP servers) have support for spaces if the email is enclosed in quotes (i.e "bob123 seespace"@someemailaddr.com), though the email address itself must be created with quotes in order for it to be usable. Regardless, in most cases, even if your provider supports the previously mentioned quote method, it's best not to use it, as it may be read incorrectly by other servers, hence preventing you from sending emails outside your own providers servers (i.e from: "test123 space"@myserver.com, to: testnospace1234@gmail.com).

In place of a space, you can use an underscore ( _ ), which is the closest thing to looking like a space, and it's completely compatible with any standards compliant server.
