    Resolved Manually Check Email Address Validity

    I am validating an online form, and naturally one of the fields to validate is an email address.

    Does anybody have a function available that checks the validay of a string to be a valid email address?

    Unfortunately I need a bit more flexibility than is provided by the RegularExpressionValidator object - unless I can somehow call it without hard binding it (if that makes sense).

    I can see that the following is used by this control as the Email format:

    \w+([-+.]\w+)*@\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*

    Any ideas?
