Why don't you use +? [\.]+ could be matched with one more .!

UPDATE. Note this is not foolproof by any means.

^([a-zA-Z0-9\-]+\.)+(com|org|net|mil|edu|COM|ORG|NET|MIL|EDU)$

The + tells the regex to match one or more times

For Perl-compatible regex syntax, you can do this:

^([a-zA-Z0-9-]|\.(?!\.))+\.(com|...

Also, this is very US-centric. My company's domain ends in .com.au.
