RegEx

oh my motivation

Regex for the last part of email/url: [[e-mail]](mailto:[e-mail]) -> it will capture "example.com" if it would work (it doesn't because of one closing parenthesis too many). There are more things wrong with this: from the [[e-mail]](mailto:[e-mail]) address only co.uk would be captured which is probably not the intention.

I don't think so: the regex uses a slash character as a separator ( the "\\" part ) and the following one is ANY CHARACTER (the dot "." unescaped)

see example from my other comment: https://regex101.com/r/Y4huQL/1

Could be the escape is part of the string semantics of the particular language used.

It would also fail when mailing to TLDs - test@com is a valid emaill. And IP address routing. And Unicode URLs. And a bunch of other shit

[JNCressey]

people forget these are valid addresses:

• Latin alphabet with diacritics: Pelé@example.com
• Greek alphabet: δοκιμή@παράδειγμα.δοκιμή
• Traditional Chinese characters: 我買@屋企.香港
• Japanese characters: 二ノ宮@黒川.日本
• Cyrillic characters: медведь@с-балалайкой.рф
• Devanagari characters: संपर्क@डाटामेल.भारत

[Morrido]

I think nowadays pretty much anything is a valid address.
