Ben,
How are you going to decide what email domains are allowed and which domains are banned? What are you considering to be a "personal" e-mail domain?

Personal E-Mail accounts are going to be those that are not supplied by our client's organizations (ie: gmail.com, yahoo.com, etc.) I just need to be able to add these "invalid" domains to a list that is used to stop people from using them as their E-Mail address.

Right. So, what I'm saying is that the list of ALLOWED e-mail domains is finite and known while the list of BANNED e-mail domains is almost infinite and unknown.
So, you would use Verified as the site's registration model and modify the regex for e-mail address validation.
Example (works): ^\w+@(dotnetnuke.com|dotnetnuke.org)
This is for the ALLOWED domains, which is the universe of domains that you control and are allowing.

Mike,

First I would like to thank you for offering your suggestions.

Unfortunately you are making assumptions against what I specifically said my requirements are. The list of valid E-Mail domains in my case already number near one hundred and is growing as we take on more customers. Our customers are all local, and the number of personal E-Mail services they can choose from is a much smaller list that we've seen and experienced so far (roughly 6-10) providers at the moment. This is why I am specifically looking to create a BAN list and not an ALLOWED list. The BAN list is much smaller and easier to maintain. As we find more domains that we would like to exclude, we can add them as we find them to the list.

I wasn't expecting you to have 100+ valid e-mail domains. You could still use a RegExp to exclude the domains. I'm not skilled enough with RegExp to provide the syntax (but I know it's possible).

However, the RegExp string might become too large.
