Confirm-ValidEmailAddress.ps1

1. <# 
2. .SYNOPSIS 
3.     This script validates email addresses based on 
4.     MSFT published Regular Expression. This is a  
5.     re-write with PowerShell of an existing bit of  
6.     MSDN sample code  
7. .DESCRIPTION 
8.     This script first creates a function to validate 
9.     an email address. It uses a large regex that is 
10.     documented at the MSDN page noted below. The script 
11.     then creates an array of email addreses and then 
12.     validates them against the function and displays 
13.     the results.
