Hi Ryan,

Try this:

<cfset t = "Lindsay Evans <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>">
<cfset e = REFindNoCase("[^<>[EMAIL PROTECTED]<>\s]*", t, 1, "true")>
<cfoutput>#Mid(t, e["pos"][1], e["len"][1])#</cfoutput>

Add any characters that shouldn't be in an email address after the '\s'
bits, if you need to. (yeah, I was lazy & just checked for anything that
isn't angle brackets or a space :)
I'm sure one of the numerous email RFCs can tell you what chars are allowed
in an address.
