NAME

String::Validator::Email - String::Validator for checking Email Addresses.

VERSION

version 2.01

SYNOPSIS

String::Validator::Email is part of the String Validator Collection. It will check a string against any number of email validation rules, and optionally against a second string (as in a confirmation box on a webform).

NAME

String::Validator::Email - Check if a string is an email address.

String::Validator Methods and Usage

Provides and conforms to all of the standard String::Validator methods, please see String::Validator for general documentation, and String::Validator::Common for information on the base String::Validator Class.

Methods Specific to String::Validator::Email

Parameters to New with (default) behaviour.

 mxcheck     (OFF) : Perform MX Lookup for Domain Given.
 tldcheck    (ON ) : Validate TLD against a List.
 fqdn        (ON ) : Require a Fully Qualified Domain Name.
 allow_ip    (OFF) : Allow @[ip] (forces tld & fqdn off.)
 min_len     (OFF)
 max_len     (OFF)

Important notes -- SVE uses Email::Valid, however, tldcheck is defaulted to on. The choice to turn tldcheck should be obvious. The fudge and local_rules options are specific to aol and compuserve, and are not supported. Finally mxcheck is not tried if there is already an error, since Email::Valid's DNS check does not work, that is performed directly through Net::DNS.

Expound

Email::Valid provides very terse errors, Expound provides errors more appropriate for returning to an end user.

Example

 use String::Validator::Email ;
 my $Validator = String::Validator::Email->new() ;
 if ( $Validator->Is_Valid( 'real@address.com' ) { say "good" }
 if ( $Validator->IsNot_Valid( 'bad@address=com') { say $Validator->Errstr() }
