The problem is that alternates is a regex, not a patern, so "!" doesn't
make any sense to it. What you need is a negation character within the
regex itself. Unfortunately, I can't think of one. The closest thing I
can think of right now is the single character negation:
^[^abc].*@domain.com
matches stuff that does NOT start with a or b or c:
astuff@xxxxxxxxxx
bstuff@xxxxxxxxxx
cstuff@xxxxxxxxxx
etc...
I don't think alternation would work with this. If anyone knows of a
negation character for groups, that would do the trick. Otherwise you
will need to do some messy [^] combinations to do it.
