I'm way rusty on my regexp's (been on vacation for a month without doing
any) but try this:
$s =~ m/^([^,]+),\s*(\".+\>),(.+)/;
$1 will be "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
$2 will be '"Blow, Joe" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>'
$3 will be "Joe Blow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
This will work as long as all the lines are in the format you gave
earlier:
$s = '[EMAIL PROTECTED], "Blow, Joe" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,Joe Blow
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>';
If not, lemme know and I'll do my best (or somebody else will I'm sure)
to come up with something a bit more forgiving. This regexp is really
ugly and mean.
