Re: EMAIL Syntax Validation

This is what I use, it is a bit dated, but catches most mistakes:

0025.00   emailaux = %trim(n_email);
0026.00   if %scan('@': emailaux) = *zero;
0027.00      msgDta = 'Al correo le falta el "@"';
0028.00   endif;
0029.00
0030.00   if %scan('.@': emailaux) > *zero;
0031.00      msgDta = 'El correo tiene el nombre incorrecto';
0032.00   endif;
0033.00
0034.00   if %scan('@.': emailaux) > *zero;
0035.00      msgDta = 'El correo tiene el Dominio incorrecto';
0036.00   endif;
0037.00
0038.00   if %subst(emailaux: 1: 1) = '@' or %subst(emailaux: 1: 1) = '.' or
0039.00        %subst(emailaux: 1: 1) = '-';
0040.00      msgDta = 'El correo empieza con caracter incorrecto';
0041.00   endif;
0042.00
0043.00   if %subst(emailaux: %len(emailaux)) = '@' or
0044.00        %subst(emailaux: %len(emailaux)) = '.' or
0045.00        %subst(emailaux: %len(emailaux)) = '-';
0046.00      msgDta = 'El correo termina con caracter incorrecto';
0047.00   endif;
0048.00
0049.00   emailaux = %xlate(

0052.00     emailaux);
0053.00
0054.00   if msgDta = *blank and %trim(emailaux) <> '@';
0055.00      msgDta = 'El correo tiene algun error';
0056.00   endif;
0057.00
0058.00   if msgDta <> *blank;
0059.00      SendEscMsg ('CPF9898': 'QCPFMSG   QSYS': MsgDta: %len(MsgDta):
0060.00           '*ESCAPE': '*': 2: MsgKey: ErrorDS);
0061.00   endif;

 Does anyone have an email syntax validation routine they could
post...or point me to a sample somewhere?  I just want to make sure it
is in a valid format.  I don't care if it is a valid address or if the
domain exists.  Oh....it also has to be in RPG III.....don't ask.....

Thanks,
