Well, looking at how Adobe did somethings, I would say you could either write a filter loop that executes in the keyDown handler or just hard code the keys you want to reject.
I don't know if this helps you but, there is;
keyEvent.stopPropagation()
keyEvent.stopImmediatePropagation()
See the docs for the lengthy definition of those methods.
Being email and all it sounds like you just need to do alittle ditch digging ;-) IE put in an if statement with logical || .

I'm trying to write a custom control and I need to be able to reject
certain keystrokes. I'm able to add listeners for the KeyBoardEvent,
but they are not cancelable. I don't see anywhere in the object
heirarchy that they are. I'm probably missing something since I'm
approaching this from a perspective of developing similar controls
in .NET and Java. Is handling the KeyboardEvent the correct way to do
this? If so, how do I handle the event so that I can cancel it? If
not, what should I be doing so I can reject certain keystrokes?
Thanks.
