Help with this (PHP)

I working on a project, but i dont know how to fix the problem i have. The code below was with a script i got, but it doesnt work. Its suppose to check if the email has valid characters but it says it has invalid characters no matter what i type (ill do [email protected], testgmail.com, test@gmailcom, testgmailcom, and none will work)

PHP:

			if (!preg_match('/^[A-z0-9_\-]+\@(A-z0-9_-]+\.)+[A-z]{2,4}$/', $email)){
				$err = 1;
				$error_html .= "$LANG_err_email.<br><br>\n";
		}

Can anyone fix it? Thanks!

PHP:

if (!preg_match('/^[a-z0-9_\-]+\@(a-z0-9_-]+\.)+[a-z]{2,4}$/si', $email))
{
    $err = 1;
    $error_html .= "$LANG_err_email.<br><br>\n";
}

Should work. Or here's a function I'm using in one of my scripts

PHP:

function is_valid_email($email)
{
    $pattern = '/^[a-z0-9&\.\-_\+]+@[a-z0-9\-]+\.([a-z0-9\-]+\.)*?[a-z]{2,6}+$/is';
    
    return (preg_match($pattern, $email)) ? true : false;
}

// Use it like..
if (!is_valid_email($email))
{
    $err = 1;
    $error_html .= "$LANG_err_email.<br><br>\n";
}
