  • yes, it needs also a email repeat check like

    email:
    email repeat:

    i get lots of forms, where users entered their email wrong
    thats very annoying for me and the users

    is there anything possible, in work?

    You could cc: the user on the form they submit.. then the user knows if they didn’t receive it, they should probably resend it.

    Check this Yii2 email validation handling. https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/validators/EmailValidator.php#L81 It checks for DNS records on that domain. It’s very good. Hopefully we can see same in this WP plugin 🙂

    IMO, that script won’t do any good if WordPress is on a company Intranet or if there are temporary DNS failures. An email address with no domain is also completely valid. And what if the user gets the first part of the email wrong instead of the last part?

    This is one I think you’re just gonna have to live with 😉

    Although someone could write an extension for CF7 based on @guruk’s idea..
