Re: Re: Adding Email Validity Test to the existing script.

In fact, you can even have more than one @ sign, believe it or not. IUPUI is an Indiana/Purdue campus here in downtown Indianapolis. It is now so big that it has its own branch campus (everyone following this?), IUPUI at Columbus, which translates to "iupui@c.edu". An e-mail account there could be "smith@iupui@c.edu"

(I should point out that this was true at one time, about ten years ago; it may well have changed in the interim.)

This is called address routing. A valid syntax, but many MTA's no longer honour this - it's a bit too spammer friendly. But `\@@abigail.nl` [download] is an email address with a valid syntax. Abigail	[reply] [d/l]
