Hey Michael,

the underlying field is of type="email" thus I'm wondering how this can be an issue for you. Can you please check if this is still valid and which browser you're using, if this is still broken?

Kind regards
Andreas

Updated by Riccardo De Contardi about 2 years ago

I close this issue as resolved and for lack of feedback. I checked on:

- TYPO3 12.0.0-dev (latest master)
- TYPO3 11.5.16
- TYPO3 10.4.32

I performed the following test:

1. Log in TYPO3 and open the "User settings":

2. Update the "your email address" field with an invalid email (BTW: I checked, the input field is type="email

3. Press Save

Result:

The browser validation kicks in:

Note

If you use an e-mail address with just the at symbol but without a dot , the validation is passed and the address is saved

Please see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20573488/why-does-html5-form-validation-allow-emails-without-a-dot for the discussion about the addresses without the dot

If you think that this is the wrong decision or experience the issue again, please reopen it or open a new issue with a reference to this one.
Please add a detailed step-by-step guide about how to reproduce your issue.

Thank you.
