Check if there is exactly one @ symbol, and exactly one . symbol, that . is after the @ at least one letter or number in between, and the length of the trailing part after . is between 2 and 3 letters. Some letters or numbers should be before @.

The only way to validate an email address is to send an email and let the user tell you it arrived.

Email addresses can be very very complicated, so no easy check based on the address as a string will be correct in every case. As a sanity check, I'd check if it contains an @ sign, but nothing more.
