After ceo posted about the imap function I was eager to try it out
and got rather disappointed pretty soon.
imap_rfc822_parse_adrlist() should not be used for email validation!
EXAMPLE:
?php
var_dump(imap_rfc822_parse_adrlist('! # $ % * + - / = ? ^ _ ` { |
} ~', ''));
?
The above code will
var_dump(imap_rfc822_parse_adrlist('! # $ % * + - / = ? ^ _ ` { | } ~',
''));
This looks like a valid localhost email address to me...
What's wrong with it?
:-v
You may want to check that host is non-empty, if you do not expect any
localhost users, and fail on that condition,

It surely is a valid localhost email address, but what most people
(and the OP) usually need is to validate a full email string with a
local and a

When it comes to email validation, I would recommend using the IMAP function
which will be both fast and correct:
http://us.php.net/manual/en/function.imap-rfc822-parse-adrlist.php
Otherwise, it's guaranteed that you are having at least some false positives,
and probably some false

Hello Team of Nerds,
I need help in writing a regular expression for this:
invalid character set is:
INVALID_STRING={/,*,+,(,),'\',:,;,~,..,.@,@.};
I want to a pregmatch for these characters on my whole email address and if
match is found I need to return false.
Thank you

Then you need to STFW and RTFM. PHP uses Perl-style regexp's, by the

If your trying to filter E-Mail addresses, then filter_var is what you
should use:

Good to know filter_var() exists in PHP5
Unless you have PHP5 you better validate the string in the way of checking
if it is fit's to your allowed characters and not checking if it contains
the NOT allowed charaters.
You better use: [a-z0-9A-Z\_\.]+ instead of [^\)\(\*\[EMAIL PROTECTED] and I
Thank Guys,
I at least got part of it working , not the double words but almost
everything else than that:
function _email_validate($mail_address){
$invalid_charset_pattern = [(*+?)|~:;{}/ ];
if(ereg($invalid_charset_pattern, $mail_address)){
return false;
}else{
return true;
}
}
Keep in mind that ereg will disappear with PHP 6. You might want to use
the preg functions:

Yeah, I understand that its allowed in RFC. But unfortunately I use SSO
layer which decrypts the Cookie to get email address.
This is where it messes up. So I have decided not to allow people to use
that as well.
Thanks

Thats what happens now.
But there is a glitch in the decryption
How is anything but your webserver decrypting the $_POST data? PHP
should get it after that as is.
