What's special about .com? What about email addresses that end in .org, .co.uk, .net. .gov.au, .cx, .info, .biz, or any one of a million million other email addresses? > THis is because I had the program look for the @ symbol to > find the decorators and it returned email addresses in the list. With respect Mary, I replied to your last question about this on Saturday. Did you read that? Was it useful? Did you have questions? I think the approach you are taking is the wrong approach and is doomed to failure. I fear that you are taking a problem that can be solved very simply, and making it much, much, much more complicated than it needs to be. Please read my email sent in response to your last question about this, and good luck! -- Steven D'Aprano _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
