On a long list of names with email addresses, how can I separate the addreses
from the names?
list is like:
Sam smith xxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxx
Larry J. Jones xxxxxxxxx@xxxxxx
sometimes separated by spaces, sometimes by tab

[Graham Mayor]

Which part do you want - the name, the email address, both? What do you want
to do with the name and/or address when you have located it.

Use the find routine (CTRL+F) to find

[a-zA-Z0-9\-_.]{1,}\@[a-zA-Z0-9\-_.]{1,}

with the wildcards box and the highlight all found entries box checked.
The e-mail addresses will be highlighted.
Close the find dialog. Then copy to the clipboard.
Open a new document and paste.
