I have a module I'm putting on cpan soon that has a grabdomain function.
Part of the trouble is the country part, to illustrate:
domain.com and domain.com.uk are both the "main domain". so my function takes
into account those and lets you add and remove which far right \w+ would be
two or three sections.
Then each section has to be properly formatted also. RFC can get sticky!
Keep your eye out on cpan for the SimpleMood module. It will have
lots of handy things to simplyify development.
