# This pattern uses a lot of named subpatterns in order to match email# addresses in various formats. It's a heavy test for named subpatterns. In the# <atext> group, slash is coded as \x{2f} so that this pattern can also be# processed by perltest.sh, which does not cater for an escaped delimiter# within the pattern. $ within the pattern must also be escaped. All $ and @# characters in subject strings are escaped so that Perl doesn't interpret them# as variable insertions and " characters must also be escaped for Perl.
# This set of subpatterns is more or less a direct transliteration of the BNF# definitions in RFC2822, without any of the obsolete features.
