Just an obvious remark, the concrete example you gave shows how useless this pattern would be to anonymize email addresses. It’s usually better like x******@y***.com

@WELZ Yes but its more work, a half working sample would(.)[^@]*@([^.]).*(.[a-z]+)
use 3 capture groups which you can address in the replace with string:1***@2***3
- uses a fixed number of mask characters but this is actually good.
