Check this out.  PHP 5 now includes the filter extension by default.   
Saves you from having to keep your regular expression up to date --  
just keep your php install up to date instead:

if (filter_var($email, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL) !== false) {
	// email passed validation
} else {
	// email is not valid
}

http://php.net/filter_var
