Use
the EMAILADDRCHECK statement to control the extent to which the FTP
server validates e-mail addresses entered by FTP clients while logging
in to the FTP server.
Restriction: This statement is
meaningful only when ANONYMOUSLEVEL is 3 or greater.
Syntax
.-EMAILADDRCHECK NO-----------.
>>-+-----------------------------+-----------------------------><
'-EMAILADDRCHECK--+-NO------+-'
+-FAIL----+
'-WARNING-'
Parameters
- NO
- The FTP server does not validate the e-mail address entered by
the FTP client. Whatever the user entered is accepted and the user
can log in. This is the default.
- FAIL
- The FTP server verifies that the e-mail address entered by the
FTP client is a valid e-mail address before allowing the user to log
in. The FTP server rejects the login if the e-mail address is not
valid.
- WARNING
- The FTP server inspects the e-mail address entered by the FTP
client. Any value the client enters is accepted as valid; however,
the FTP server returns a warning reply to the client if the e-mail
address is not plausible. In either case, the FTP server allows the
FTP client to log in.
Examples
To ensure that only anonymous
users entering valid e-mail addresses are allowed successful login,
set the following parameter in FTP.DATA:
EMAILADDRCHECK FAIL; Requires anonymous users to enter a valid email address.
Usage notes
The FTP server prompts anonymous
users for an e-mail address instead of a password when ANONYMOUSLEVEL
is 3.
