That *is* CSS, and it doesn't work; what you want instead is

<span style="unicode-bidi: bidi-override; direction: 
rtl;">moc.liamkciuq@eoj</span>

But anyone without CSS, with a browser that doesn't support 
unicode-bidi, or listening to the page with a screen reader will get 
moc.liamkciuq@eoj, since that's the natural order in the source.
