'/^[^\x00-\x20()<>@,;:\\".[\]\x7f-\xff]+(?:\.\+[^\x00-\x20()<>@,;:\\".[\]\x7f-\xff]+)*\@[^\x00-\x20()<>@,;:\\".[\]\x7f-\xff]+(?:\.[^\x00-\x20()<>@,;:\\".[\]\x7f-\xff]+)+$/' Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/156733-put-a-in-regex/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrg_alpha Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Using regex for emails gets pretty messy. I would recommend having a look this thread post (#3). There is a link to a full blown email parser that seems to do a respectable job at detecting email formats.
