Hi
I have a mailid like test@123.com@ As part of email validation
I have to check it user@123.com So I did
"test@123.com@@".split('@') So I get ['test','123.com'] But if it
were test@123.com the expected validation is correct But the lase two @
signs are not recognized by split So how can check that after 123.com
still there is @ sign and declare my validation as failed?

I can't explain why it doesn't recognize but you could add something to the end of the address and split.
irb(main):014:0> a = 'test@123.com@@'
=> "test@123.com@@"
irb(main):015:0> a.split('@')
=> ["test", "123.com"]
irb(main):016:0> a = a + 'trash'
=> "test@123.com@@trash"
irb(main):017:0> a.split('@')
=> ["test", "123.com", "", "trash"]
irb(main):018:0>
Hi
This is not the required solution Suppose the user enters
test@123.com@@ or test@123.com@ what happens? Since we cant insists
that there should be value after @ or @@

Use tmail to validate your email
It will raise an exception on basically anything except a correct address.
And I would recommend not using an ‘@’ symbol to symbolize anything in an email address. It is the key component that separates the local from the domain part of the email address and you will always run into problems.
