I note that you apparently put the source for the regex in there - http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822?

That's the RFC it follows, yes. I found out about the regex here: http://www.regular-expressions.info/email.html

The author does say you shouldn't use it -- it's a crazy regular expression after all -- but it IS the RFC :D
