How do I search for Users with invalid (malformed) email addresses?
Submitted by pwjm6392@ncedcl... on Sat, 11/29/2014 - 22:19
What you want to do is search for all users in your PSU that do not have a VALID email address format. You can do this by following this procedure:
- Select the Manage Employees tab or Manage Students tab (under Profiles)
- Click on the Advanced Search checkbox and enter...
- For ALL users (Last Name = *) AND with an invalid email address format (Email != *@*.*)
The equation: Email != *@*.* translates as Email NOT EQUAL to wildcard@wildcard.wildcard (where "wildcard" represented by an asterisk, can be ANY value)
This search will turn up all users with invalid email addresses, such as those missing: the principal name, the @, or the following school domain (e.g. emailname@lea.nc.gov)
