<input type=”email”>
Define a field for an e-mail address (will be automatically validated when submitted)
Tip: Safari on iPhone recognizes the email type, and changes the on-screen keyboard to match it (adds @ and .com options).
important It’s also crucial to remember that a user can tinker with your HTML behind the scenes, so your site must not use this validation for any security purposes. You must verify the email address on the server side of any transaction in which the provided text may have any security implications of any kind.

$sanitized_email = sanitize_email(' [email protected]! ');
echo $sanitized_email; // will output: '[email protected]'

Allowed character regular expression: /[^a-z0-9+_.@-]/i.
