Ok that answers my question; I would still have to define all the
validators for auth_user.email (assuming there is more than one).
Also just for claficiation, using the following:
db.auth_user.email.requires.error_message = T("....")
gives me the following error message:
<type 'exceptions.AttributeError'> 'list' object has no attribute
'error_message'
