What Does the Email Extractor Do?
The Email Extractor scans any block of text — web page source, plain text, CSV exports, forum posts, PDFs copied as text — and pulls out every valid-looking email address using a standard RFC-5321 compliant pattern. Duplicates can be removed automatically and all addresses can be lowercased for consistency.
What Counts as a Valid Email?
| Part | Valid examples | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Local part | user, first.last, info+tag | Letters, digits, dots, +, -, _ |
| Domain | example.com, sub.domain.org | At least one dot required |
| TLD | .com, .co.uk, .email | 2–63 characters |
Common Sources for Email Extraction
| Source type | How to use |
|---|---|
| Raw HTML page | View page source (Ctrl+U), select all, paste — catches mailto: links and plain-text addresses |
| CSV or spreadsheet export | Copy the column containing emails and paste — addresses are extracted regardless of surrounding data |
| Plain-text documents | Paste copied text directly — works on any unstructured text body |
| Email newsletters | Forward the email to yourself, view source, paste the raw MIME text |
Obfuscated Addresses and Extraction Limits
Anti-spam obfuscation techniques — such as writing addresses as user [at] domain [dot] com, using Unicode lookalikes, or inserting invisible characters — will not be matched by a standard email regex. These addresses must be cleaned up manually before pasting. JavaScript-rendered email addresses (injected by scripts) also require viewing the rendered DOM rather than the raw HTML source.
