I have other email address that are first name, last name, and so on.
Would something like this be adequate?
*(tim(h|othy(.holmes)|.holmes))?|tdh)@(domain1|domain2).com
Would that line pull out emails sent to
tdh@
tim@
timh@
timh.holmes@
timothy@
timothy.holmes@
...
given above names and your regex[0], how about[1]...
(tdh|tim(h|othy)?(\.holmes)?)@(domain[12])\.com
...
[0] tim, your regex produces an id not listed in your examples:
"tim.holmes@" ... otherwise, based solely on your examples, regex
would be...
(tdh|timh?|tim(h|othy)\.holmes)@(domain[12])\.com
...
come to think of it, i would change my above 2 regex's to...
(t(dh|im(h|othy)?(\.holmes)?))@(domain[12])\.com
(t(dh|imh?|im(h|othy)\.holmes))@(domain[12])\.com
...and these are simultaneously nice and ugly.
