    JAVA Script email validation

    Hi guys,
    With this script I want only accept the .NL and .TK country codes. Other country codes are not allowed and that works fine with this script...
    BUT I also wants to bann some domain names like Hotmail, MSN etc...
    See:
    =======================================
    /* The following is the list of banned domains */
    var bannedDomsPat=/^(hotmail|icq|yahoo|freemail|msn)$/;
    =======================================

    Can someone help me to fix this into this script, plz???


    <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">


    <!-- Changes:
    /* 1.1.4: Fixed a bug where upper ASCII characters (i.e. accented letters
    international characters) were allowed.
    // -->
    <!-- Begin
    function emailCheck (emailStr) {
    /* The following variable tells the rest of the function whether or not
    to verify that the address ends in a two-letter country or well-known
    TLD. 1 means check it, 0 means don't. */
    var checkTLD=1;
    /* The following is the list of known TLDs that an e-mail address must end with. */

    fits the user@domain format. It also is used to separate the username
    from the domain. */
    var emailPat=/^(.+)@(.+)$/;

    characters. We don't want to allow special characters in the address.

    rather than symbolic names. E.g. joe@[123.124.233.4] is a legal
