When is an Email Address in Error?

An email address is considered in error if:

• there is not an @ sign and a period (.)

• there is no text:

• before the @ sign

• between the @ sign and the period

• after the period

For example, the following email addresses would appear on the error report:

• @example.com

• sbrown@example

• sbrown@.org

• www.commercialware.com

Any additional validation? The system does not confirm that an entry represents a valid email address, or that the domain name (such as "company" in company.com) even exists.
