Why not do Flash script validation? Check for the "@" and "." substrings
for minimal validations. I have a working example I did as a POC for a
current project. Email me privately if you want the example FLA file.
Basically, the syntax just looks something like this:

On (Release)
If (txtEmail eq "")
Set Property ("errorHeader", Visibility) = "1"
Set Variable: "txtError" = "We need your email."
Else If (Length (txtEmail) < 7)
Set Property ("errorHeader", Visibility) = "1"
Set Variable: "txtError" = "Not a valid Email Address."
Else
Load Variables ("www.forExample.com", 0, vars=POST
Set Property ("errorHeader", Visibility) = 0
End If
End On

I don't know how much good this will do you, but here is a simple (but good
:) JavaScript email validator
----------------------------------------------------
<html>
<head>
<title>Email Test</title>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function IsEmail(email)
{
if(email)
{
if(email.indexOf('@') != -1
&& email.indexOf('.') != -1
&& email.charAt(email.lastIndexOf('.') + 1) != '')
{
return true;
}
else
{
alert('You did not enter a valid email address!');
return false;
}
}
else
{
alert('You did not enter an email address!');
return false;
}
}
file://-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="email_test">
<input type=text name="email" size=30
nBlur="if(!IsEmail(this.value)){ focus() };">
</form>
</body>
</html>

I'm looking for the actionscript code to validate whether a textvariable
contains a valid email address or not. I could probably do it myself,
given enough time, but if someone has a debugged one ready, I'd be
grateful.
