i tried that one...

it doesn't do as well as the perl... "Email::Valid" mod...

i decided to write a quick perl script, and call it from the php app...
seems to satisfy my needs for now... i haven't run across any php
script/regex that's as comprehensive as the perl "Email::Valid"

The author goes through RFC822 in detail and writes up a regex that
validates emails based on that. It's worked in my experience, but I
havn't exactly put it through its paces.
