Are you nuts? That's just the sort of thing Regexp was designed to do.
And, it's not really all that complex. The Rails docs even use email
validation as the example for validates_format_of so it's not like you
have to write the "complex" regex yourself. Just copy-and-paste:
class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_format_of :email, :with =>
/\A([...@\s]+)@((?:[-a-z0-9]+\.)+[a-z]{2,})\Z/i, :on => :create
end
