Use a regular expression to test the variable submitted by the form. This
is an excerpt from my usual validation script using ereg().. I'm sure you
can adapt this for your purposes..
if (!ereg('^[-!#$%&\'*+\\./0-9=?A-Z^_`a-z{|}~]+'.
'@'.
'[-!#$%&\'*+\\/0-9=?A-Z^_`a-z{|}~]+\.'.
'[-!#$%&\'*+\\./0-9=?A-Z^_`a-z{|}~]+$', $email_address)) {
$send = "no";
}
