Emailer format
You're referring to the format of an email address!
An email address, also known as an electronic mail address, is a string of characters used to identify a mailbox on a mail server. The format of an email address is as follows:
localpart@domain
Where:
localpart
is the part of the email address that comes before the@
symbol, also known as the "username" or "local name". It can contain letters, numbers, and special characters, but it must not contain spaces or start with a dot (.) or hyphen (-).@
is the "at symbol" that separates the local part from the domain.domain
is the part of the email address that comes after the@
symbol, also known as the "domain name" or "host name". It can contain letters, numbers, and special characters, but it must not contain spaces or start with a dot (.) or hyphen (-).
Examples of valid email addresses:
[email protected]
[email protected]
admin@localhost
Examples of invalid email addresses:
john [email protected]
(space in the local part)@example.com
(no local part)example.com
(no@
symbol)
It's worth noting that while the format of an email address is standardized, the rules for what constitutes a valid email address can vary depending on the email service provider or organization.
