Hi All,

I know that it is pretty darn impossible to come up with a regular
expression for validating emails.

How do you all validated emails on form submission?

Is it good just to do something like "/.+@.+[.].+/" ? That (or a
close derivative) should match that there is at least a @ and a . with
chars before and after each. I will be sending an email to each new
registration with a confirmation link.

Does that regex make about the best sense?

Thanks and 73,
