Filtering Fake inputs

Hi
My script takes input for a hostname.

echo "enter hostname [abcd123.efgh.ijk.com]
read hostname


Now I would like to filter the fake inputs.My hostnames always follow same syntax ( abcd123.efgh.ijk.com).

Appreciate everyones suggestions on this..Thanks..

NAME
ssh-argv0 -- replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling SYNOPSIS
hostname | user@hostname [-l login_name] [command] hostname | user@hostname [-afgknqstvxACNTX1246] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-e escape_char] [-i identity_file] [-l login_name] [-m mac_spec] [-o option] [-p port] [-F configfile] [-L port:host:hostport] [-R port:host:hostport] [-D port] [command] DESCRIPTION
ssh-argv0 replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling. If you link to this script with a hostname then executing the link is equivalent to having executed ssh with that hostname as an argument. All other arguments are passed to ssh and will be processed normally. OPTIONS
