Greetings,

Another question for a future release would be, can you check
and make sure the user isn't using an email address from the
system or any system you don't want them to sign up for.

EXAMPLE:

My system: useremailaddress.com
User signs up and tries to use: momma@useremailaddress.com

The error would say, sorry we need this to be a third party email address
for password safty. Or some error like that.

Also, if I don't want HOTMAIL.com users signing up; the error would be:
Please use your email address from your ISP, not a free email
service.

This system would almost be like the username portion of setting up an account, but
instead its the third party email address they are using.

Thank you,

Avery

Could someone please let me know if there is anything in the works for this?

Thank you,

Avery

I hate to be a pest, but I really do need an answer to this question.
We need to be able to limit the use of special characters in usernames, or at least make it
so that GM can sort out usernames with special characters in them.

Thanks again in advance for any help...

Avery

Hi,

You have two different questions here. The first is restricting email addresses a user uses when signing up, the second is retricting what login a user can use.

For the first, there isn't anything built in here and would take some custom code to handle this.

For the second, you want to change admin/GMail/Auth.pm, sub valid_format. It takes in a username, and returns 1 if it is ok, 0 if it's invalid.

Cheers,

Alex
