Donna,
Thank You, I did try that but unfortunately Joomla CMS is also looking
for duplicate email addy's.
I was just hacking
/administrator/components/com_users/views/user/tmpl/forms.php
But it still did not work. Where in Hades is the verification taking
place? Is it in multiple places?

Why don't you have RSForms Pro fill in a dummy email address.

*Subject:* [joomla] Email verification during Joomla Registration
Hello Everyone and Happy NYC Joomla DAY Weekend!
I have a client with a Joomla 1.5.26 site. He registers customers
using the backend User Manager and does not want to type in the user
email address. To clarify, he does not have a user email to enter into
the field and does not have a need for that field.
I talked to him about a Joomla 2.5.x migration but this is not in the
works so I started thinking about and looking at methods to hack
Joomla 1.5 (YIKES -- I hate doing this for obvious reasons).
I explored using RS Forms Pro but it appears that RS Forms Pro can not
override the built in Joomla CMS verification that takes place at the
registration process even if you create a custom RSForms Pro
registration form.
There are a few posts at Joomla.org <http://joomla.org/> about this :
http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?p=2608020#p2608020
but I tried commenting out the the two sections of code that send the
email out after registration and this did not solve my problem.
Does anyone know where in Joomla CMS 1.5.x I can find the specific
code that verifies that the email field has data and/or checks the
data entered against existing users. Perhaps I can just comment out
this verification and be happy!
Thank You
Bob Rynkieiwcz
