Hi Jeff -

Those of you who are storing email addresses for customers/vendors etc in
DB2/400 files:

What length are you allowing for email addresses?  I can put VARLEN in the
DDS to save space, but is there some maximum allowable email address size?

Per the standards in RFC2821, the maximum total length is 256. The maximum length of the part to the left of the '@' is 64.
