.match(/\S+@\S+\.\S+/) for matching email works fine but if the email 
address is abc-txJ8x5cWuao@public.gmane.org then it will also give the result as
abc-GXcTff7tL0M@public.gmane.org"." and i dont want that "."
to come in my string.....so can
i trim it to return max of 3 chars while matching email id.. is 
something like that possible

thanks

This seems to be the complete RegEx for email addresses following
RFC822, but I had no time to translate it for Ruby and to test it.
Please mail here if you change it in Ruby.

Re: perfect email match

There''s also validates_as_email. Last time I checked the repository
over
at Greenpeace (which hosts it) was down, but there are myriad projects 
out there that will allow you to check out validates_as_email from their 
repositories.

Note that "perfect matching" and RFC822 compliance don''t
always match up
-- RFC822 allows addresses like user@domain without a top-level domain 
for internal e-mail, though they are likely completely besides the point 
in most Rails applications.
