check_email

bool
check_email(
  string email,
  bool Strict = false
);

Check e-mail address for syntax validity. Returns true, if the address syntax is correct, otherwise returns false.

Note. Email is checked as per RFC822. For example, test@test - is absolutely correct address in this respect. That is why, this function isn't suitable for checking format address in a traditional manner.

Function parameters

echo (check_email("Bitrix ")) ? "OK!" : "Error!"; // Error!
