Try quoting the regex:

zip=regex "![^A-Za-z0-9 -]" "Postal code can only contain letters,
numbers, spaces, and hyphens."

Space is actually a legal character in the local part of an email
address as long as it's quoted and while I would recommend that you
never create an email address with a space (or other funny characters)
in it, you should accept one to avoid rejecting legitimate addresses.
That said...

email_only is defined in code/OrderCheck along with most of the profile
checks.  You can grab the regex from in there, modify it slightly and
use it in a regex check instead.  The space is octal 040, so you would
do the following to exclude space from the regex:

email=regex "^[\041-\077\101-\176]+\@[-A-Za-z0-9.]+\.[A-Za-z]+$/" "not
an email address"
