The above version easier to read and "copy paste". Space is space and tabe is \t
sed 's/^([^ \t]*[ \t]*[^ \t]*)([ \t]*.*)$/\1.contoso.com\2/'
I grew up with versions of 'sed' that don't understand this new-fangled method of specifying tabs, and write enough cross-platform code that I can't rely on it (still doesn't work in Solaris 10, for example).
