Maybe soon...!
I have a whole website on regexes that I'm still writing so, maybe I'll add
it to that when I have the time and explain what I've done and how it works!

PS the website
Maybe not necessary, but it would be good to have..you then would have a

Yes. There is nothing in the regular expression that will make it break in
cf4.5 (as far as I'm aware) so you can just copy the code in the functi
gular Expression for Email and Domain checking
- it works!
I found a bug... It validates [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Need to update the tld list with co.uk and com.uk and ltd.uk etc instead of
the simple uk one!
I'll put an update on website!

Giles,
You're right that if there was nothing else it should not
Okay... For all you smarty pants out there who think it's not quite right,
here is an updated version WITH all tld's in it:

Its also not 100% correct as it will validate [EMAIL PROTECTED] as a correct
email
and no, it states [EMAIL PROTECTED] is TRUE.

Everyone,
For those that can't be bothered to read to the bottom here is the regular
expression for validating an email address:
^[a-zA-Z0-9!##\$%&''\*\+-/=\?\^_`\{\|}~]+([.][a-zA-Z0-9!##\$%&''\*\+-/=\?\^_
`\{\|}~]+)
I think that that would fail on [EMAIL PROTECTED] though wouldn't it?
