find bad email addresses using regexp_substr ???

Kodiak_SeattleAug 27 2015 — edited Aug 28 2015

hopefully I don't have to provide a CREATE and INSERT here, I am thinking this is a general question


So I know that this example will find the good email addresses, but how do I change this to find the bad ones ?

I know that I can use REGEXP_LIKE NOT in the Where clauses, but can I find them from the select clause ?

select

regexp_substr(email_address,'[a-zA-Z0-9._%-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9._%-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,4}') 

from table;
