Can't get correct split() result

Question

I am trying to split a string into 3 parts (array) and return the last element(email address). Currently this code is returning the second and the third elements in VS.NET 2002. Can someone tell me why that is? private string getEmailAddr(string x) { string emStr = "Foo Foo [email protected]"; string[] parts = emStr.Split(new char[] {' '}, 3); emStr = parts[2].ToString(); return emStr; }
