Don't do it with one regex, instead split it first into records.
use Data::Dumper;
for my $record (split m/\n\n\n/, $tempStr){
my %user_info;
for (split m/\n/, $record){
if (m/^User (.*)$/){
$user_info{name} = $1;
} elsif (m/^(\w+)\s*=\s*(.*)$/){
$user_info{$1} = $2;
}
}
print Dumper \%user_info if %user_info;
}
(Update: Code now actually works).
Note that your email addresses a@b.com try to interpolate the array @b if the string is in double quotes, so please use single quotes (or even better, a here-doc) instead.
