If you are using VFP you could do some checking yourself. I have a function
that does some basic checking:
HTH
Peter
FUNCTION isemail
PARAMETERS cEmail
LOCAL lValid,i,cChar,nAsc,li
cEmail = RTRIM(LOWER(cEmail))
* check valid e-mail address
lValid=.t.
IF OCCURS('@',cEmail) > 1
nAtpos = 0
ELSE
nAtpos=AT('@',cEmail)
ENDIF
IF OCCURS('.',cEmail)>0
nDotpos=AT('.',cEmail,OCCURS('.',cEmail))
ELSE
nDotpos=0
ENDIF
* also check for bad chars. Only allow a-z 0-9 @ _ - + # FOR li = 1 TO
LEN(cEmail)
cChar = SUBSTR(cEmail,li,1)
nAsc = ASC(cChar)
IF !(BETWEEN(cChar,'a','z') OR BETWEEN(cChar,'0','9') OR
INLIST(cChar,'.','@','_','-','+','#'))
lValid=.f.
ENDIF
NEXT
IF nAtpos<=1 OR nDotpos=0 OR nDotpos<nAtpos OR nDotpos=LEN(ALLTRIM(cEmail))
lValid=.f.
ENDIF
RETURN lValid
