Comment	> The regular expression ACT\|NSW\|NT\|QLD\|SA\|TAS\|VIC\|WA for matching > Australian addresses also matches addresses that contain the text > "USA", ie. US American addresses. I think that the regex should check > for word boundaries: \b(ACT\|NSW\|NT\|QLD\|SA\|TAS\|VIC\|WA)\b. Possibly, > the regex for UK addresses should also be updated. > > > > BTW, what about adding comments with example addresses that show what > address style these regular expressions are supposed to match? > > > > The code for European style addresses doesn't seem to match German > addresses. At least, not the address style suggested by the German > Post. Here's an example for national mail: > > > > Muster GmbH COMPANY NAME (optional, of course) > > Max Mustermann FIRST NAME followed by LAST NAME > > Musterstr. 1a STREET or P.O. BOX > > 12345 Musterhausen POSTAL CODE followed by CITY NAME > > > > The German postal code must never be prefixed with "D-" although > there are still people who do this. Instead, the country name must be > given in German, French or English on another line. An example for > international mail: > > > > John Dundee > > Harbour Place 4 > > CANBERRA ATC 4568 > > AUSTRALIEN > >
