This is a simple C# .NET Program to validate email address. The ValildateEmail() function checks for a valid email and returns true if the email address is a valid email otherwise it returns false if the email address is not proper syntax. The code is well commented and should explain what is happening .
This code uses regular expressions to validate the structure of the email address and checks for the presence of “@” and “.” characters. Additionally, it has a separate function ContainsIllegalCharacters to check for the presence of any illegal characters in the email address.
