  • I'm not trying to blame you for anything. This question however is very similar to the last question you asked. Have you tried adapting the answer to the last question using what you have learned?

Here is a way to go:

  • Ctrl+H
  • Find what: ^(?:[^a-z@]*[a-z]){0,3}[^a-z@]*@.+(?:\R|$)
  • Replace with: EMPTY
  • Replace all

Explanation:

^           : begining of line
(?:         : start non capture group
  [^a-z@]*  : 0 or more non alphabetic or @
  [a-z]     : an alphabetic
){0,3}      : group exists from 0 up to 3 times
[^a-z@]*    : 0 or more non alphabetic or @
@           : literally @
.+          : 1 or more any character but newline
(?:\R|$)    : any kind of linebreak (\r, \n, \r\n) or end of line

DO NOT CHECK . matches newline

Result for given example:

[email protected]:Keepline1
*[email protected]:Keepline1
[email protected]:Keepline1
§[email protected]:Keepline1
