This is RPG to try and catch the types of errors we have seen. It was written about 5 years ago so could probably use a refresh to use some new bifs, but it works for us. It is in a callable app that accepts the email and sends back the vaild and error values

If I'm reading it correctly, it also needs some additional code to
make sure that it doesn't halt if the @ sign is in the first or last
positions of the email address field.
