You can do this easily using the std.net.isemail module:

Hi Rene,

 Can you provide me a example, as the link does not have any examples.

isEmail returns a struct with the status of the check.
You can use the valid and domainPart to check if it's a valid email address for the hotmail domain.

isMail only checks the formatting of the email address and optionally if the domain has a MX record.


```
auto e = isEmail("vino.bheeman@hotmail.com");

if ( e.valid && e.domainPart == "hotmail.com" )
	...
```

btw... yes documentation is an acknowledged issue with regards to phobos...but..that aside...it can also be useful (and wise) to look at the unit tests in the source code.

I'm not sure that simply calling something you don't know anything about is such a good idea these days ;-)

...fortunately, we have access to the source - which gets installed with dmd.

or you can find it on github.

test/improve it yourself. but you get the idea....

// ----------------------

module test;

import std.stdio;
import std.algorithm;

/+
CONDITIONS:
    - The domain should contain only "hotmail.com"
    - The email address should contain the symbol "@"
+/

void main()
{
    string domainRequired = "hotmail.com";

    string emailAddress = "vino.bheeman@hotmail.com";

    auto checkDomain = findSplitAfter(emailAddress, "@"); // requires import std.algorithm

    //writeln(checkDomain); // Tuple!(string, string)("vino.bheeman@", "hotmail.com")

    if (checkDomain[1] == domainRequired)
        writeln("domain ok");
    else
        writeln("invalid domain");


}

I don't believe MX validation (checkDns) is implemented yet.

Here's another nice option I just found.

Interestingly, I had to disable Avast antivirus, otherwise when I compile it, Avast thinks the exectuable is 'suspicous' and prevents any further access to it...wtf?

// ---------------------
module test;

import std.stdio;
import std.algorithm;

/+
CONDITIONS:
    - The domain should contain only "hotmail.com"
    - The email address should contain the symbol "@"
+/

void main()
{
    string domainRequired = "@hotmail.com";

    string emailAddress = "vino.bheeman@hotmail.com";

    emailAddress.endsWith(domainRequired) ? writeln("domain ok")
         : writeln("invalid domain");

}

Also you need check that only one @ used.
