People, I updated this article ( [url]http://vyaskn.tripod.com/handling_email_addresses_in_sql_server.htm[/url] ) with another aspect and few more queries:

"Querying the email addresses for country information"

To be able to query country information from email addresses, first we need a table with country codes and country names. So, I uploaded INSERT statements that populate a country table with 252 country codes and country names: [url]http://vyaskn.tripod.com/top_level_domain_names_country_codes.htm[/url]

Have fun!
Vyas

I know this is a very old thread but it still seems to be a popular read so I thought I'd add to it.

I wrote a script a while ago that corrects the domains...

Basically it cross references domains that have email opens recorded against them and corrects several human errors. So homail(missing character)/htomail(swapped character)/jotmail(close proximity keyboard button) are all corrected.

Details are too long to write here really so have a look at this link...
