The markup appears to be correct, as when your code is added
to an hcard
with a test name, the tool at http://suda.co.uk/pro
jects/X2V/ pulls out
the correct information.
The type of internet and preferred aren't necessary, as
internet is the
default email type, and as there is only one email address
listed for
them, there is strictly no preferred one to refer to.

What you may be facing is that some tools aren't as of yet
fully complete.
As an example, Operator is an alpha release right now, and
doesn't
appear to support some abbr design patterns.
The most up-to-date one typically being http://suda.co.uk/pro
jects/X2V/
