Check users email on registration

[Ren]

Hello,

Let me explain what I desire :alien:
I don't allow members to use Hotmail or Yahoo account's to sign up for my board because it seems like 99% of those people love to cause trouble on the message boards .

I get tired of manually checking and deleting people that can't read what I have added to the email registration field , and was wondering if it would be possiable to have it check and give a error message if someone used a forbidden email to sign up?

Thank's for Listening , Ren

why not just ban hotmail.com ?

[Ren]

well that's the kicker , I do have older members who have hotmail and yahoo address's from before I made up the rule back in febuary , if that makes sense .

there is an option to let current members keep their "banned" email address

then send an email to them via ACP and tell them to change it within xx days, then there account will be suspended

You can ban hotmail.com, yahoo.com etc. in the banned email domain box, and still allow current members to keep them.

I would like this, and notify the person upon registration being rejected because Hotmail and Yahoo accounts are banned.

I'm getting like 10 emails a day with people freaking out because they're banned and never been on the forum before.

How about I just edit my banned email template :D
