in reply to RegEx to find the index of the character '@' in an Email address
...will work only if the given string $mail = "abcdefgh\@gmail.com"; But in my case, i will be getting the input with email address as its. Not with an escape character.
The backslash is only needed to prevent the interpolation of an array @gmail in the double quoted string literal. The actual value in $mail won't hold the backslash, just as the input values you're expecting to handle...
That said, maybe have a look at Email::Address.
