Try -

var tbstring = '(a) [email protected] (Blig fun), [email protected] (LOl)';
result = tbstring.match(/\b[A-Z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}\b/ig);
alert(result.join('\n'));

Email RegEx is taken from the RegEx Buddy library and comes with the following provisos -

Does not match email addresses using an IP address instead of a domain name.

Does not match email addresses on new-fangled top-level domains with more than 4 letters such as .museum. Including these increases the risk of false positives when applying the regex to random documents.

"New-fangled"? .museum has been around for about a decade!
