Email address validation missing - domaincom accepted (dot missing)

[30knees]

Hi,

A customer was able to sign up with a gmailcom address (dot missing).

I think the shop software should validate the address and require a dot in the part after the @.

Is there a way we could implement this?

about validation, I don't know if is already possible but think about the possibility to allow of emails like: [email protected] https://www.cs.rutgers.edu/~watrous/plus-signs-in-email-addresses.html

Hi,

You can implement this with an override. Just create a file named Validate.php in directories override\classes So you get your file at override\classes\Validate.php

In Validate.php, just write:

``` <?php

class Validate extends ValidateCore { public static function isEmail($email) { if (empty($email) || !pregmatch(Tools::cleanNonUnicodeSupport('/^[a-z\p{L}0-9!#$%&\'*+\/=?^{}|~_-]+[.a-z\p{L}0-9!#$%&\'*+\/=?^{}|~-]@[a-z\p{L}0-9]+(?:[.]?[_a-z\p{L}0-9-]).[a-z\p{L}0-9]+$/ui'), $email)) return false;

    try {
        \Swift_Message::newInstance()->setFrom($email);

        return true;
    } catch (\Exception $e) {
        return false;
    }
}

}

```

Clean the cache (especially class_index.php), and it's works.

Thanks, @Lathaneo!

@mdekker But is there a strong use case for email addresses without a TLD for an online shop? I would assume the only place where that would be required is with a type of localhost domain, but not for any true customer email address.
