Is it possible that Contour has overlooked email address validation?? Doesn't make sense, based on how advanced it is. I guess I'm supposed to use a regular expression? What is the standard regular expression for an email address? Anyone?
When editing fields of document types, you can click the "search for regular expression", then type "email" in the search field to get a list of options. An example is

Hi Garrett
When editing fields of document types, you can click the "search for regular expression", then type "email" in the search field to get a list of options. An example is
^([a-zA-Z0-9_\-\.]+)@((\[[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.)|(([a-zA-Z0-9\-]+\.)+))([a-zA-Z]{2,4}|[0-9]{1,3})(\]?)$But be sure and test it against edge-case email addresses such as [email protected]

Validating e-mail addresses correctly according to the RFC is not easy. See http://www.regular-expressions.info/email.html, the question is how accurate do you need to be..
That's exactly where I went, thanks, and I found the one that works best for me. Thanks for your help guys!
