| Description |
This will match any valid RFC2822 e-mail address typed into web forms. If does not support comments, display name, or line folding. It does support quoted-strings in the local-part and domains by the RFC 1035 and proper ip addresses. It does relax the RFC1035 rule of not allowing numbers as the first character of a domain name (since they do exist in real life) |

Title: Non-Matching
Name: mson72

Comment:
Hello, when i use your pattern with javascript, e-mail will not match. Here my sample script:
function checkEmail() {
var p = /<your pattern copy-paste>/;
return(p.test(document.forms[0].elements[0].value));
}
I use the following e-mail address:
test\ [email protected]
or
"test test"@gmx.net
or
"test\ test"@gmx.net
In all cases, the result of checkEmail is false.
What's the reason?
Many thanks.
Michael

which would be helpful. Is this for the Java/Perl regex or the .NET javascript regex?

I didn't test this, but at least someone is saying "RFC" when mentioning an "email address validator". People, please take note. If your "email validator" isn't at least this long, you aren't doing the right thing!
Thanks for this!
