A convenience function to merge options into the validates_length_of_email_field_options. So instead of:

  self.validates_length_of_email_field_options = validates_length_of_email_field_options.merge(:my_option => my_value)

You can do this:

  merge_validates_length_of_email_field_options :my_option => my_value

See merge_validates_length_of_email_field_options. The same thing except for validates_uniqueness_of_email_field_options.

Toggles validating the email field or not.

• Accepts: Boolean

Alias for validate_email_field

A hash of options for the validates_format_of call for the email field. Allows you to change this however you want.

          :message => Proc.new {
            I18n.t(
              'error_messages.email_invalid',
              :default => "should look like an email address."
            )
          }
        }
