What I want is to have the full line that contains that email
address copied to a new document such that I then have every
occurence of that email address in the new document so I can
pour through it looking for errors. I tried adding * before
and after the email address to see if that would bring over the
whole line but that didn't work.
This is a job for a regular multi-file search (Find All) which
will find all instances of the given address and present a
results browser where you can review each instance (each match)
in context.
In contrast, the purpose of the Extract command is to capture
all the data which matches a particular _pattern_ (not a string)
from within a file or set of files, e.g. say you want to gather
every email address which is preceded by "Registered to: ".
