Expression |
^.+@[^\.].*\.[a-z]{2,}$ |
Description |
Most email validation regexps are outdated and ignore the fact that domain names can contain any foreign character these days, as well as the fact that anything before @ is acceptable. The only roman alphabet restriction is in the TLD, which for a long time has been more than 2 or 3 chars (.museum, .aero, .info). The only dot restriction is that . cannot be placed directly after @.
This pattern captures any valid, reallife email adress. |

Expression |
^([0-9a-zA-Z]+[-._+&])*[0-9a-zA-Z]+@([-0-9a-zA-Z]+[.])+[a-zA-Z]{2,6}$ |
Description |
A short and sweet email address validator. Checks that the username starts and ends with an alphanumeric character, allows a few non-repeating 'special characters' (namely -, ., _, +, &) and checks for a sensible domain name (2-6 character TLD required). Some unconventional, yet technically valid, addresses will not be matched, but this is only a simple expression ;-) |

email address (RFC 2822 mailbox)

Expression |
^((?>[a-zA-Z\d!#$%&'*+\-/=?^_`{|}~]+\x20*|"((?=[\x01-\x7f])[^"\\]|\\[\x01-\x7f])*"\x20*)*(?<angle><))?((?!\.)(?>\.?[a-zA-Z\d!#$%&'*+\-/=?^_`{|}~]+)+|"((?=[\x01-\x7f])[^"\\]|\\[\x01-\x7f])*")@(((?!-)[a-zA-Z\d\-]+(?<!-)\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,}|\[(((?(?<!\[)\.)(25[0-5]|2[0-4]\d|[01]?\d?\d)){4}|[a-zA-Z\d\-]*[a-zA-Z\d]:((?=[\x01-\x7f])[^\\\[\]]|\\[\x01-\x7f])+)\])(?(angle)>)$ |
Description |
This accepts RFC 2822 email addresses in the form:<br>
[email protected] OR<br>
Blah < [email protected]><br>
<br>
RFC 2822 email 'mailbox':<br>
mailbox = name-addr | addr-spec<br>
name-addr = [display-name] "<" addr-spec ">"<br>
addr-spec = local-part "@" domain<br>
domain = rfc2821domain | rfc2821domain-literal<br>
<br>
local-part conforms to RFC 2822.<br>
<br>
domain is either:<br>
An rfc 2821 domain (EXCEPT that the final sub-domain must consist of 2 or more letters only).<br>
OR<br>
An rfc 2821 address-literal.<br>
(Note, no attempt is made to fully validate an IPv6 address-literal.)<br>
<br>
Notes:<br>
This pattern uses (.NET/Perl only?) features named group "(?<name>)" and alternation/IF (?(name)).<br>
<br>
See <a href="http://regexadvice.com/forums/permalink/26742/26742/ShowThread.aspx#26742">this regexadvice.com thread</a> for more info, including a version that does not use .NET features.<br>
<br>
RFC 2822 (and 822) do allow embedded comments, whitespace, and newlines within *some* parts of an email address, but this pattern above DOES NOT.<br>
<br>
RFC 2822 (and 822) allow the domain to be a simple domain with NO ".", but this pattern requires a compound domain at least one "." in the domain name, as per RFC 2821 (4.1.2).<br>
<br>
RFC 2822 allows/disallows certain whitespace characters in parts of an email address, such as TAB, CR, LF BUT the pattern above does NOT test for these, and assumes that they are not present in the string (on the basis that these characters are hard to enter into an edit box). |

This Works good until we want a multiple email address validator, I am working on it to make it work with the multiple email address, If anyone can work on this part as to validate a multiple email address then that will produce a very good expression, i think the best of this kind.

Email - Overly Simple
|
Expression |
^\w+@[a-zA-Z_]+?\.[a-zA-Z]{2,3}$ |
Description |
Simple email expression. Doesn't allow numbers in the domain name and doesn't allow for top level domains that are less than 2 or more than 3 letters (which is fine until they allow more). Doesn't handle multiple "." in the domain ( [email protected]). |

Much simpler email expression. This one forces a length of 2 or 3, which fits current specs, but you may need to alter the end as this one allows all numerals on the .COM section. |

^([0-9a-zA-Z]([-.\w]*[0-9a-zA-Z])*@([0-9a-zA-Z][-\w]*[0-9a-zA-Z]\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,9})$ |
Description |
regex to validate email address
noteworthy:
(1) It allows usernames with 1 or 2 alphanum characters, or 3+ chars can have -._ in the middle. username may NOT start/end with -._ or any other non alphanumeric character.
(2) It allows heirarchical domain names (e.g. [email protected]). Similar -._ placement rules there.
(3) It allows 2-9 character alphabetic-only TLDs (that oughta cover museum and adnauseum :>).
(4) No IP email addresses though -- I wouldn't Want to accept that kind of address. |

Description |
Validates 1 or more email addresses. Email addresses can be delimited with either comma or semicolon. White space is allowed after delimiter, but not necessary. I needed this to allow my users to specify multiple email addresses if they choose to do so. |

This expression matches email addresses, and checks that they are of the proper form. It checks to ensure the top level domain is between 2 and 4 characters long, but does not check the specific domain against a list (especially since there are so many of them now). |
