Default text to column

Formula for email address:
=LEFT(A1,FIND(" ",A1)-1)

Formula for street address:
=MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1),99)

I have a column that contains email addresses, a space, and then a street
address which has spaces between the street number and the street name. In
some cases the street name can contain as many as 4 more spaces. I can't see
a way to tell the text to column feature to only look at the first space. I
would like to move the address to it's own column leaving the email address
in the first coulmn. There are 500 rows in the cloumn and not all of the
email addresses are the same length. What is the formula?
