 * Hello,
 * Canadian Postal codes consist of 6 Alpha Numeric characters.
 * For delivery, we usually use the first 3 alpha-numeric characters to determine
   the region / area / city they belong to and if we delivery to that postal code.
 * Would it be possible to check the first 3 alpha-numeric characters if found on
   the list?
 * Can there be a (*) wildcard to match the alpha-numeric characters before the 
   wildcard?
 * Test for: 2V2*
 * Example:
 * 2V2 V2V (VALID)
    2V2 G3L (VALID) 2V2K (VALID) 2v2 v2v (VALID) 2v1 V2V (NOT VALID)
   2V2V2V (VALID)
 * Thank you,
    wiL
