function validateEmail(email) {
  var re = /^[^\s@]+@[^\s@]+\.[^\s@]+$/;

}

/*

This regex allows the following email formats:

1.  prettyandsimple@example.com
2.  very.common@example.com
3.  disposable.style.email.with+symbol@example.com
4.  other.email-with-dash@example.com
9.  #!$%&'*+-/=?^_`{}|~@example.org
6.  "()[]:,;@\\\"!#$%&'*+-/=?^_`{}| ~.a"@example.org
7.  " "@example.org (space between the quotes)
8.  üñîçøðé@example.com (Unicode characters in local part)
9.  üñîçøðé@üñîçøðé.com (Unicode characters in domain part)
10. Pelé@example.com (Latin)
11. δοκιμή@παράδειγμα.δοκιμή (Greek)
12. 我買@屋企.香港 (Chinese)
13. 甲斐@黒川.日本 (Japanese)
14. чебурашка@ящик-с-апельсинами.рф (Cyrillic)

It's clearly versatile and allows the all-important international characters, while still enforcing the basic anything@anything.anything format. It will block spaces which are technically allowed by RFC, but they are so rare that I'm happy to do this.
