I'll speak in general terms.
If you still don't get it, wait til I get home.
You want to have it to where when you're registering an account, you add an extra data portion to that packet for emails. It's, of course, going to be a string value. Server side, you want to change it to where it accepts the end of the packet for emails, check if it's valid[Ie, the use of @]. After that check is done, you want to carry on with normal procedure. If it's invalid, send a message to the client saying the email is invalid.
That should be a good enough explination. If you can code, it could be done.
If you can't code, I'll write it up for you tonight. But, it wont be a C&P tut.
Or, if I could get a hold of the source code in school, I could do it, seeing as these comps have VB and Visual Studio.NET.
