you actually don't need regex...
if you take a few minutes you can do it all with strpos and substr, adn
it'll be faster than regex.

Not realy the very best solution to use strpos and substr. You'll
have to loop through the From-string and look for the next address
each time. You can have more than one address in the From-field! And
then again... what would you do with addresses that are not between
and ? Eg.: Renze Munnik [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Using strpos and substr won't realy make you're live any simpler.
I suggest you use something like the following RE:
$emlchars = [a-z0-9.-]+;
$RE = /($emlchars@$emlchars)/i;
I've put the allowed characters for the email-address in a separate
string in order to make it read easier. You can add all characters
to that string that are also allowed, because I don't believe these
are the only allowed characters in an email-address.
How to use? See the following example code:
--- PHP Code ---
PRE
?php
$from = * RzE: [EMAIL PROTECTED],
[EMAIL PROTECTED],
Mr Nobody [EMAIL PROTECTED];
$emlchars = [a-z0-9.-]+;
$RE = /($emlchars@$emlchars)/i;
if (preg_match_all ($RE, $from, $matches)) {
print (H1Matched!/H1\n\n);
print_r ($matches);
} else {
print (H1Didn't match!/H1);
}
?

Re: [PHP] real simple regex
The imap_mail() function connects to a SMTP the same way mail() does. It just takes a few paremeters more allowing you to set Reply-To and other headers normaly defined in PHP.INI. In general the imap functions can be used with IMAP¤ and POP3 servers to read mails. - Frank but can imap replace my old mail() calls?
