[pinuzzu99]

I have found this that serves my purpose:
\S+?@\S+?.\S+
this regex select all my address@mail.com :numberletters

now i would like to add part of string to delete the rest of the text in my txt…

[guy038]

Hello, @pinuzzu99 and All,

Well, it’s just up to you ! All your previous e-mail addresses did not contain any dot before the @ char. Thus, I supposed that there were only word characters !

With , your last example name.gress@mail.com, of course, the regex S/R should become :

SEARCH (?-s)^(?!\h*[\w.]+@).+\R

REPLACE Leave EMPTY

---

Then, you said :

now i would like to add part of string to delete the rest of the text in my txt

I’m sorry but it’s really not clear to my mind !

Please, give us a sample of your input text, with various e-mail adresses and show us the output text you are expecting to, from your present input example !

---

Just a hint : when replying, type your input and output text as code, using the symbol </> , as below :

See you later,

Cheers,

 lathmhjm@hhhjail.com:p456456inha

empty line between emails and also one space before any mail address.
I hope it helps me to complete the correct string!

Hi, @pinuzzu99 and All,

Ok ! So, assuming your short example, below :

.: data :.
=================================
asda pamfhdjosa.mardedyly@ydefgo.com:cloggr4trr
=================================
 
ubba:/my-wallets.zip                               379912     2019-08-07T02:52:11+02:00
.: data :.
=================================
asda cartgrtgrg@gfgbil.com:1r5yyr78115
Pry Statinf: Kree
=================================
 
ubba:/crypto.zip                                   380547     2019-08-07T02:50:07+02:00
.: data :.
=================================
asda jatrhtrh@grthil.com:mrthhrhmm17
Pry Statinf: Kree
=================================
 
ubba:/wallets.zip                                  379807     2019-08-07T02:58:33+02:00
.: data :.
=================================
asda lathmhjm@hhhjail.com:p456456inha
Pry Statinf: Kree

The following regex S/R :

SEARCH (?-s)^(?!\h*[\w.\x20]+@).*\R?

REPLACE Leave EMPTY

gives this output text :

asda pamfhdjosa.mardedyly@ydefgo.com:cloggr4trr
asda cartgrtgrg@gfgbil.com:1r5yyr78115
asda jatrhtrh@grthil.com:mrthhrhmm17
asda lathmhjm@hhhjail.com:p456456inha

Are you expecting this result ?

I simply suppose that the non-null part of an e-mail address, located before the @ char, may contain :

• Any word character

• A dot symbol

• A space character

Best Regards,

guy038

[pinuzzu99]

thank you very much. excellent result. I’d still like if you could also delete the first part of the text in front of the email from:
asda address@mail.com : mrthhrhmm17
until you get:
address@mail.com : mrthhrhmm17
this of course for all the email addresses listed …

[guy038]

Hi, @pinuzzu99 and All,

No problem ! If we assume that there are no space char in e-mail addressses ( generally the case ! ) and further on, in current scanned line, we just need to add an alternative which, implicitly, looks for lines with an e-mail address and deletes from beginning of current line till a non-null range of space characters. Thus, the following regex S/R :

SEARCH (?-s)^(?!\h*[\w.\x20]+@).*\R?|^.*?\x20+

REPLACE Leave EMPTY

And you’ll obtain your expected result :

pamfhdjosa.mardedyly@ydefgo.com:cloggr4trr
cartgrtgrg@gfgbil.com:1r5yyr78115
jatrhtrh@grthil.com:mrthhrhmm17
lathmhjm@hhhjail.com:p456456inha

[pinuzzu99]

oh yes! finally what i wanted!
thank you very much, dear guy038.

[pinuzzu99]

another little help:

v7cifgthhy@yasbco.com.tw:512454215

i want delete all :number:number

[Alan Kilborn]

@pinuzzu99

What have you tried?
What did you get?
What didn’t work about it?

[pinuzzu99]

which regex is needed to eliminate :number:number at the end of each line

[guy038]

Hi, @pinuzzu99 and All,

Nice ! I even succeded to merge your two kinds of text, by adding a third alternative in the search regex !

---

So, starting with the input text, below, where the e-mail adresses may be :

• Preceded with any chars ( asda, 12345 …), followed with, at least, one space char OR beginning the line

• Followed with, at least, one field, determined by a colon separator char

bla bla blah
bla bla blah
bla bla blah
asda ladgdfg_jfdggs@yertynno.com.vn:1234556:1654473467:53687091200
bla bla blah
bla bla blah
jegfa@nkcore.com:jeryr55673:1757810123:53687091200
bla bla blah
bla bla blah
12345      ghyfm36@rocgfhmmail.com:mintgg18509:0000000000000:1111111111:55555555555555:777777777777777777:99999999999
bla bla blah
bla bla blah
bla bla blah
asda           v7cifgthhy@yasbco.com.tw:512454215:380488:53687091200

Use the following regex S/R :

• SEARCH (?-s)^(?!\h*[\w.\x20]+@).*\R?|^.*?\x20+|.+?:.+?\K:.+

• REPLACE Leave EMPTY

• Of course, the Regular expression search mode is selected and the Wrap around option is ticked

• You must use the Replace All button, exclusively ( Not the Replace button ! )

We get the following output text :

ladgdfg_jfdggs@yertynno.com.vn:1234556
jegfa@nkcore.com:jeryr55673
ghyfm36@rocgfhmmail.com:mintgg18509
v7cifgthhy@yasbco.com.tw:512454215

Notes :

This regular expression is composed of 3 alternatives :

• The first part (?-s)^(?!\h*[\w.\x20]+@).*\R?, which have been explained previouly. If deletes any entire line, which does not contain a @ char, after a non-null range of words chars and possible dot and/or space chars

• The second part ^.*?\x20+ which deletes all text between beginning of line and a non-null range of space characters, if that line contains an e-mail address, further on

• The third part .+?:.+?\K:.+ deletes, after the e-mail adress, from the second : char found till the last standard char of the current scanned line

• Note, in this last part, the use of the lazy quantifier +? to identify all standard chars between the first and the second : chars and the \K syntax before the second : char, which resets the overall search and just grabs all the remaining chars of current line, from the second :, included

---

Remark :

I strongly advice you to learn the regular expresions world ! Of course, you’ll have to study for 1/2 months, but it’s really worth it ;-)). To begin with, consult this FAQ :

[pinuzzu99]

ohhhhh very great! many thanks for your help! very very thanks.
and you’re right when you say you have to study. and usually I do. but in the case of np ++ using little, it did not occur to me to search and learn reg ex expressions. but I will take your suggestion into account.

for my question: this is ANOTHER txt, then different. but anyway you code work great, my intent was that! very very many thanks for your help!
Regards

[guy038]

Hi, @pinuzzu99,

Ah, OK ! So, if we consider that there were 2 separate tasks and starting with your exact input text, below :

ladgdfg_jfdggs@yertynno.com.vn:1234556:1654473467:53687091200
jegfa@nkcore.com:jeryr55673:1757810123:53687091200
ghyfm36@rocgfhmmail.com:mintgg18509:11767409268:53687091200
v7cifgthhy@yasbco.com.tw:512454215:380488:53687091200

The following regex S/R :

• SEARCH (?-s)^.+?:.+?\K:.+

• REPLACE Leave EMPTY

• Click on the Replace All button, exclusively

should leave you with your expected result :

ladgdfg_jfdggs@yertynno.com.vn:1234556
jegfa@nkcore.com:jeryr55673
ghyfm36@rocgfhmmail.com:mintgg18509
v7cifgthhy@yasbco.com.tw:512454215
