Hi,

The email checking on the registration appears to be not working.

I have emails that people are registering that are not correct. one example is a person who mixed up 2 letters of their name on their email address.

I have the latest version of CB. Please help Thanks.

What exact version of Joomla and CB are you using?

Do not understand what you mean by email check not working - does it say that email is right even though its wrong?
Or the opposite?

Please note that you can post in the Advanced Support area as we tend to monitor that area on a priority basis.

Joomla 1.5.23
CB 1.7

What I mean is at the registration page. The email checking is not working. Even when the user registered a typo on his email address. Example peter.ggaskin@teamdiscovery.eu

Well, the email address you gave is a valid one in terms of structure.

Yes but how do we prevent this. Is there a way to check the email address for mistakes?
