How would I use a wildcard to filter out any permutation of the following. There can be any number of zeros before the “@” character. Example
0@test.com 000000@test.com 00000000000@test.com
Basically, I’m looking to wildcard any email address with only zeros before the @ character.
Any help would be greatly appreciated Thank you !

T-SQL:
To remove all values with only zeros before the @
SELECT
*
FROM (SELECT '000@test.com' AS[values] ) [table]
WHERE
LEN(REPLACE((LEFT([values],CHARINDEX('@',[Values])-1)),'0','')) <> 0
— LEFT & CHARINDEX : get the result LEFT of the @
— LEN & REPLACE : After all 0 are replaced by ” any email that contained only zeros will result in len = 0.
