Comment (by nedbatchelder):
Can I respectfully suggest that continuing to tweak this complex regex to
get asymptotically closer to perfection is not worth it? Especially to
fix false positives. What real-world problem is happening because
"gmail.-com" is accepted? "gmail.ccomm" is also accepted, but is just as
useless as an email address.
