Email Regex

Fri, 22 Sep 2006 17:50:04 GMT

Every month, I get an email from an Rmail user who can't enter his valid email address because my email regular expression thinks it's invalid. Today, I created a text file with all 24,000 Rmail user email addresses and ran a massive NUnit test case to figure out what the best Regex would be for email addresses. I finally settled on the following. Hope you like it.

^[-0-9a-zA-Z._+&]+@([-0-9a-zA-Z]+[.])+[a-zA-Z]{2,6}$
