Hi Folks,

Everyday, or every 48 hours, some bots can register trough ES (see attached pic).

These bots are from the ".xyz" domain. But as you can see with attached pics, I have disalowed the ".xyz" domain, but maybee the probleme is because of these bots are using several subdomains, ie. "bot1@user.test.blabla.xyz" or "bot2@hello.abc.spam.xyz"

Isn't possible to go to es-->workflow-->user-->email and give a "keychain" or a "keyword" i.e. "xyz" to disallow totally bots from entiere "xyz.com" domain ?

I don't want to use an antispam (cleantalk or recaptcha)

An idea to stop that ?

Thanks for helping and suggestions...

Best Regards,

Yann Anderson
Hi Abdul,

Thanks for helping.

But as I can see, regex stop too much email addresses.

I have some reals registred users that can no longer registred on my site with their current email (example, caroline.ruffer@gmail.com because of the point between the first name and the last name).

Because this bots are coming from the .xyz domain, I tried another solution and I think it work fine, I used "forbidden words" see attached picture :-)

Now, I can close this ticket :-)

Best Regards

Hi there,

Only way to encounter this is by enforcing it to be checked by regex https://take.ms/cmIeg. You can try expression below and see how it goes.


^\w+@[a-zA-Z_]+?\.[a-zA-Z]{2,3}$


You can try them here http://regexlib.com/Search.aspx?k=email&AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1
