Answer 1

There is inbuilt validator for email validation that will go like this,

'validators' => array(                     
            array('EmailAddress',true)                
             )

Add these validators into your Model file:

  // For email validation
    'validators' => array(
        array('regex', true, array(
            'pattern'   => '/[A-Z0-9._%-]+@[A-Z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}/i',
            'messages'  =>  'Your error message here...'))
    ),

  // For character length validation
    'validators' => array(
          array(
              'name' => 'Between',
              'options' => array(
                  'min' => 6,
                  'max' => 12,
              ),
          ),
        ),

I hope this helps.
