Does anyone have a routine to validate an email address supplied? Search in this forum appears to be down right now.

Do you want a SLS-method, or a PHP-method?  in PHP, you'd do something like:
if($email != "" && ereg("@", $email) && ereg(".", $email))
{
$address = explode("@", $email); // split the address
if(checkdnsrr($address[1], "ANY") == TRUE) // Check the host part
{
$ok = 1;
}
else
{
$ok = 0;
}
}
else
{
$ok = 0;
}
echo $ok;

integer fValidateEmail( string input ){
list firstBreak = llParseString2List( input, [], (list)"@" );
if (2 == llGetListLength( firstBreak )){
//-- optional: some test for illegal characters in the first and last parts, probably a character walk and index vs a string of invalids)
list secondBreak = llParseString2List( llList2String( firstBreak, -1 ), [], (list)"." );
if (3 <= llGetListLength( secondBreak )){
//-- optional: another test checking the domain ending is a valid TLD
return 1;
}
}
return 0;
}
not perfect but workable... of course it'll pass @@...

Cheers, thanks guys!
It's exactly what I was hoping for -- something concise that left room in the script memory for, um, the actual email address :}
