Does not handle double quotes around the name (which is valid for an RFC2822 address).
Title: Email validation which only allows certain specific email address

Comment:
How is it possible to have a regular validation expression where the ending of the email address (after the @) has to be the same. Therefore only allowing people with that type of email address to register yo my site.
