Ho avuto una giornata pesante e forse sono poco lucido!

Ho necessità di creare un sito semplice semplice e una formula di "iscrizione" minima e formale: lo script in questione va benissimo (
VEDI ) solo che non capisco quanto detto prima (senza retorica).
Voglio rendere obbligatorio l'inserimento della mail

codice:
<?php
session_start();	// Maintain session state
header("Cache-control: private");	// Fixes IE6's back button problem.

// Dont allow members to go to add user page
if(@$_SESSION['user']) header("location: login.php");
elseif(@$_POST['user']){
	// Get and set vars (without html characters)
	$user = htmlspecialchars(strtolower($_POST["user"]));
	$pass = htmlspecialchars($_POST["pass"]);
	$permission = 0;		// Default: user, until admin changes
	$email = htmlspecialchars($_POST["email"]);
	$url = htmlspecialchars($_POST["url"]);

	// Add dots to date
	if($_POST["day"]) $dob = $_POST["day"]. ".". $_POST["month"]. ".". $_POST["year"];
	else $dob = false;

	$location = htmlspecialchars($_POST["location"]);
	$joined = $_POST["joined"];

	// Create the string to append
	$string = "\r\n". $user. "<del>". md5($pass). "<del>". $permission. "<del>". $email. "<del>". $url. "<del>". $dob. "<del>". $location. "<del>". $joined;

	// Make sure username doesn't already exist
	//-----------------------------------------
	// Include the flat-file
	$file = file("users.php") or die("Problem getting the user details flat-file [users.php]");

	// Get the size of file
	$totalLines = sizeof($file);

	// Get the users details line by line
	$line = 0;
	$match = 0;
	do{
		// Check the line isn't a comment
		if("//" != substr($file[$line], 0, 2)){
			// Break our records up
			@list($username, $password, $permission, $email, $url, $dob, $location, $joined) = explode("<del>", $file[$line]);

			// Check the username and passwords match
			if((strtolower($user) == strtolower($username))) $match = 1;
			else $match = 0;
		}

		// Exit loop if match found
		if($match) break;
			
		// Increment line count
		$line++;
	} while($line < $totalLines);

	// Only add new user if a match is not found
	if($match){
	?>
		<script language = "javascript" type = "text/javascript">
		<!-- // Go back
			alert("Username already taken, taking you back to choose another");
			history.go(-1);
		-->
		</script>
	<?php
	}
	else{
		// Open the users file
		$fp = fopen("users.php", "a+");

		// Append the new user to end of users file
		fwrite($fp, $string);

		// Close the file
		fclose($fp);

		// Redirect to index
		header("location: index.php?new=1");
