Subject: Regular expression for string.anotherstring

I'm trying to validate a user mail address for a fixed domain with the rule
string =~ /\w+\.\w+/
this matches firstname.lastname, which is what I want.
But it also matches fistname.lastname@somedomain.com, which is not what I
want. Why does that match? I'm having this in Rails, but I guess the
quoting will not escape @ signs?
