After several years of ASP development I still hadn't heard that regular expressions are possible in VBScript. But it seems I was wrong and in fact there is a built in object called RegExp.

We'll try to add a more indepth article about the use of Regular Expression in the near future, but for now, enjoy one of the simplest to use and most comprehensive email validation scripts you're likely to find!
