this is prob not an XSLT question...your best bet is to use regular
expressions...perhaps there is some schema approach using XML Schema or
RelaxNG...dont know never tried.

As for regex;

xslt 1.0 needs an extension: http://www.exslt.org/regexp/index.html

xslt 2.0 has regex capability built in

google on email and regular expressions...be warned I have not been able
to find in 10 years a regex that covers everything.
