Title: Not fully RFC2822-compliant

A warning to anyone who reads this:
Randal is right; this regex does not even come close to matching all valid email addresses. Please check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_address and http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822 for more information.
Also note that the regex linked from the wikipedia entry is still not quite completely correct, but CONSIDERABLY closer than this mess.

Randal, your postings all over this BB are rampant whining. Help suggest alternatives or stop complaining.

If you don't know what RFC822 is, you should NOT be writing email regex.
THIS REGEX DOES NOT MATCH VALID EMAIL. {sigh}
