Hello guys,

I have a problem with email field in my online form. Some customers in Germany have email domains with Germans letters, for example with letter "ß": @groß.com... But this kind of email addresses is not valid in Kentico email field. How I can change it to allow letters: ß, ü, ä...

I tried to add this

 < add key="CMSEmailValidationRegex" value="^[A-ZöÖüÜäÄß0-9._%+-]+@[A-ZöÖüÜäÄß0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}$"/ > 

in this part

< appSettings >
of web.config but in that case no one address is valid.
