Saved emails from email extractor in text format. There are many 1000s of emails with 1 email per line. Some emails like [at]example.com and [at]mn.png must be removed from database/word file. How to do that in word? Can that be done in regex of email extractor itself ? Regex = ^a-zA-Z0-9-[^a-zA-Z0-9_-]

Word is not the right tool for text manipulation.
The simplest solution in Windows is the batch command findstr, for example:
findstr /v "@example.com" file.txt >file_without_example.com.txt
You can also use findstr with regex, using the /R option. For example:
findstr /v /r "^@example.com$" file.txt >file_without_example.com.txt
But there is an endless number of other utilities that can do the job.
