Hi All,

I know that it is pretty darn impossible to come up with a regular
expression for validating emails.

How do you all validated emails on form submission?

Is it good just to do something like "/.+@.+[.].+/"  ?  That (or a
close derivative) should match that there is at least a @ and a . with
chars before and after each.  I will be sending an email to each new
registration with a confirmation link.

Does that regex make about the best sense?

Try this, (# is the regex delimiter):

#^([\w.+-]+)@(([\da-z-]+\.)+[\da-z]{2,4})$#i
