Set Variable: "emailaddy" = "

"

Set Variable: "badaddy" = false

Set Variable: "addylength" = Length (emailaddy)

Set Variable: "checkletter" = substring (emailaddy, x, 1)

Set Variable: "char_num" = 0

Loop While (checkletter ne "@")

      Set Variable: "char_num" = char_num + 1

      Set Variable: "checkletter" = substring (emailaddy, char_num, 1)

End Loop

If (char_num < 2)

      Set Variable: "badaddy" = true

End If

If (char_num > addylength - 4)

      Set Variable: "badaddy" = true

End If

Loop While (checkletter ne ".")

      Set Variable: "char_num" = char_num + 1

      Set Variable: "checkletter" = substring (emailaddy, char_num, 1)

End Loop

If (char_num < 4)

      Set Variable: "badaddy" = true

End If

      Set Variable: "badaddy" = true
