I want to parse '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' or '<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>' and get the email address [EMAIL PROTECTED]
the regex is r'<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>|[EMAIL PROTECTED]' now, I want to give it a name r'<(?P<email>[EMAIL PROTECTED])>|(?P<email>[EMAIL PROTECTED])' sre_constants.error: redefinition of group name 'email' as group 2; was group 1 BUT because I use a | , I will get only one group named 'email' ! Any comment ? PS: I know the solution for this case is to use r'(?P<lt><)?(?P<email> [EMAIL PROTECTED])(?(lt)>)' -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
