Adding Email Address as a required field for Contacts

[ashcam]

I am trying to add email address as a required field for contacts. I have been able to add other fields such as First Name and Phone Number. However, email address is not working. If I do not enter an email address then it still saves without error.

Here is what I added to the custom editviewdefs.php for Contacts:
'lbl_email_addresses' =>
array (
0 =>
array (
0 =>
array (
'name' => 'email1',
'label' => 'LBL_EMAIL_ADDRESS',
'displayParams' =>
array (
'required' => true,
),
),
),
),


It shows up as a required field but still saves if blank. Can anyone help with how to make email address a required field? What file does sugar use to validate the email address for edit view on Contacts?
I am using SugarCRM CE 5.2.0c.

Thanks for your help!

I have done quick repair and rebuild in sugar. It still allows me to save a blank email address. Can you show me an example of your code and let me know which file you set the required field in for email address? Also what version of sugar are you using?

Thanks for your help! Just trying to figure why this isn't working!
