To validate a email

how can we validate a email is valid or not?

u can either use apache commons validator, there is a
EmailValidator.isValid() or
GenericValidator.isEmail() it checks for valid
domains, valid format of the email ids, etc...
chk that out...I don't know what the GenericValidator does, but the javadoc for EmailValidator says that it will return true on e.g. [email protected]

How to Validate Multiple email address in spry?

How to validate multiple email address in spry framework?
Spry validate text field can validate one email address only,
if I the text field is for multiple emails, how can I validate
it?

Hello Jackson,
The Spry Textfield was designed to work with the normal work
flows that people currently use in most of the forms on the web. We
tried to prevent any email injection method in the forms therefore
the validation was designed to stop any multiple email insertion.
In case you want to insert multiple emails you'll have to
disable the default email validation and create your own validation
function, more flexible. You can see a
sample
we did for the custom validation trying to validate a password
strength and confirm the password.

Signature status for just submitting signature and yet to validate the email

Hi,
I need to get a specific signature status for just submitting signature and yet to validate the email. I need to restrict the user to submit my web form with out signing in the widget. So here, while submitting the form, Im fetching the signature status via ajax though API and based on the status the web form is restricted to submit.
But using API, I could only able to get the complete signature status(submitting signature and validating email). Is it possible to get the status of only submission and yet to validate email ?
Thank you,

Hi Asmusz,
Thanks for the reply.
I created the widget with API createEmbeddedWidget and got documentKey in return from the result. Here is the result when I tried to get the status of the document from getDocumentInfo by passing documentKey:
object(stdClass)#75 (1) {

        ["title"]=>
        string(13) "Sr. Developer"
    ["status"]=>
    string(6) "WIDGET"
and the result is the same even If the document is signed in the widget and waiting for email validation. Not sure if im in a right path to get 'WAITING_FOR_VERIFICATION' status. Please clarify.

Validate Blackberry email address

Good day everyone
I need assistance wrt the above subject line. I want to validate my email address, however I cannot remember my password and my recovery question answer as well. I've tried the information on the BB website but its still not working. Please help me.....

Hi and welcome to the forums!
If you know the email address and you can;t validate it, there's a chance you can change the information and retry the validate process. The attached link shows all the needed steps.
As far as forgetting the password and the recovery question as well, 3 strikes your out!
It pains me to have to suggest this but you'll have to call your wireless service provider.

How can I validate an email password via the BIS site

I have received a message asking me to validate the password for an MSN email account I access through a work Curve 8520. I have done this before without any problem but now my BB says there is a problem connecting to the server so I can't access my email accounts to validate. Email is still coming through on other accounts. I tried to use the PC and access through the Blackberry Internet Server page but can't find anywhere there to access email account settings (all the guides say email settings are on the left hand pane of the page but not on any page I have found?

BT can not validate my email address, another **bl...

Honest, you couldn't make it up.
I have had BT Smart Talk on one mobile since it came out, it has its uses so I thought I'll put it on my second phone as well.
Got through the " Setting up my account "... eventually.
Even received the pin number via my landline, moments later....... looking good.
Seconds later an email to say " Hello, blah, blah, blah "............. with some nice blue lettering to say " Activate your account now."
One last step to go, I click on it and get.......................... " We are unable to validate your email address "
So BT send me an email, to one of my BT email addresses that I have had for over 10 years, yet they are unable to verify one of their addresses, that seconds before they used to send me a message.
It only takes one extra straw so.............................
Another long standing BT customer (40 years ) who will now be re-organising all his BT emails and porting my contacts over to my Googlemail account, then a perusal of other ISP's who have some very atractive offers on, short term and long term, then I'll be jumping ship, I'm out of contract so the time and place is entirely up to me.
It won't have been a financial decision, because BT are more expensive, I don't mind paying that bit extra as long as I get good service, now I'm not.
Both my sons left BT a year or two ago, after being customers in their own right, after leaving home ( about 15 years ) because of carp service, they have never looked back, faster speeds, cheaper and, to date, excellent customer service.
Just hang on I'll give it another click................ no I won't ............ it's logged me out in the time it's taken me to type this.
As I said you couldn't make it up.

As Jimmy Cricket says " And there's more. "
Ding dong, a text message arrives on the phone in question.
From BT.
" Thanks for your patience, you can now start using BT Smart Talk, please re-open the app to complete the registration process. "
Great, open the app as I've been told, push the continue button....................... you know what's coming, yes back to square one
It's like playing a continuous game of snakes and ladders with BT, with loaded dice and at every other throw I go sliding down to square one.

How to separate / validate multiple emails?

Hi,
User enters single or multiple emails in the field. We provide help saying that all emails must be separated by either a comma or semicolon. Not everyone follows that so if user enters [email protected] [email protected] the email is not sent. There can be more than 2 emails.
So is there a way to check that those emails are separated by either comma or semicolon, and if not add it before email is sent?
Thank you

Hi Frank,
I am trying to validate multiple email addresses as well. Currently, my function works for only one email address. Is there a way to extend this function? I am using Oracle 9i.
FUNCTION validate_email_format(p_address IN VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
l_dot_pos    NUMBER;
l_at_pos     NUMBER;
l_str_length NUMBER;
BEGIN
l_dot_pos := instr(p_address, '.');
l_at_pos := instr(p_address, '@');
l_str_length := LENGTH(p_address);
if ((l_dot_pos = 0) OR (l_at_pos = 0) OR (l_dot_pos = l_at_pos + 1) OR
      (l_at_pos = 1) OR (l_at_pos = l_str_length ) OR
      (l_dot_pos = l_str_length)) then
    return 'FAILURE';
end if;
if instr(substr(p_address, l_at_pos), '.') = 0 then
    return 'FAILURE';
end if;
return 'SUCCESS';
END validate_email_format;Thanks

How to validate an email address against free domain users

Hi all,
I want to validate an email address so that only users of non free domains (let's say other than yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc) can create an account in my apex application.
I want to place a validation on the "Registration Page" but I am not sure how to proceed from then on :(
Does anybody know how I can do this ?
Kind Regards,
Ana-Maria

Hi Ana-Maria,
You can do this on two places. You can do it on the client (using javascript) or you can do this on the database (using a trigger or a check constraint). The best way is to do both.
Use something like this for the javascript bit:
<script type="text/javascript">
function checkemail(){
var email = $v('P4_EMAIL');
//get index of @
var x = email.indexOf('@');
//get the string behind @
var behind_amp = email.substring(x+1, email.length);
//get the index of the .
var y = behind_amp.indexOf('.');
//filter out the provider
var provider = behind_amp.substring(0, y);
var result;
// set all wrong providers in this case
switch(provider){
    case 'hotmail': result=false;break;
    case 'yahoo': result=false;break;
    case 'gmail': result=false;break;
// Check the result
if (!result){
    //The provider is bad
    alert(provider + ' is not allowed!');
    //Keep the focus on the email field
    setTimeout(function(){$x('P4_EMAIL').focus();}, 5);
</script>Set the event to the onchange of the email field (in HTML Form Element Attributes):
onchange="checkemail();"Hope this helps,
Greetings Rutger

Validate an email address

Hello
I am using this to validate email addresses and it does not
seem to work:
} else if (!email_txt.length ||
email_txt.indexOf("@") == -1 ||
email_txt.indexOf(".") == -1) {
status_txt.text = "Invalid Email.";
I would, in any case, prefer to use the following server
script for validation purposes:
<%
'Email
re.Pattern = "^\w+@\w+\.\w+"
If Not re.Test(email) Then
errorArray(1) = "red"
ErrorMsg = ErrorMsg &
"<center>Please type in a valid email
address</center>"
end if
%>
If I use this server script, how do I begin to show it in my
movie, please? What Action Script do I use to 'pull it in' from the
server and show it?
Many thanks
Steve

How to validate an email in jsp

Hi everyone, I am developing an web application in which i had to validate a user entered email address. Actually i developed some part of the code in jsp but its not so perfect because when a user enters more than one @ symbol,i am not able to detect it. Also there are some more bugs in it. So can anyone give me a sample code for this validation of an email-id. Also i heard that we have to use some regular expressions for this.Is it true? if so how? i need an idea.

Create an InternetAddress using the email string:
import javax.mail.InternetAddress;
InternetAddress email = new InternetAddress(emailString);or
InternetAddress email = new InternetAddress(emailString, true);If the address is not RFC822 valid, you should get an AddressException. If you set the address using the InternetAddress.setAddress(String s) method, then call validate(), which wil throw an AddressException on an invalid address.
