I am unsure of how to parse first name, last name and e-mail address from the 'From:' field of an e-mail. What I am struggling with is if the name has more than two words - Such as the last name being multiple words - A name a business or department is given instead of a personal name - If the person has included their middle name, middle initial or degrees (“Dr.”) - If last name has multiple words Also the formatting of the from field changes in various e-mail programs: From: Ron Piggott <ron.piggott@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> From: "Ron Piggott" <ron.piggott@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> From: ron.piggott@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx From: <ron.piggott@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> If there is more than 2 words for the name I would like them to be assigned to the last name.
