Testing for Valid Email Address?

Hi,

 

Does anyone know an easy way to test if a portion of an email address is valid?

 

I only want to test everything after the @ symbol.    Ex.melissa.jones@rainbowcloud.com

 

Thanks!

Hello @djspring,

 

You can test if the email address has the following format

 

name@whatever.com

 

Meaning that you cannot really test if the domain is a realy one.

Hi @djspring ,

 

Attached is an example built with Regex showing how to check for the @anything.com structure, including a way of separating the domain if you want to compare with a dataset of known domains, for instance.

 

Let me know if this works for you.

Best,
