The Email block has the following configuration options:

* **Store email in variable**: The variable where the user's email address will be stored.
* **Input required**: Determine whether the user must provide an email address to proceed. If this option is disabled, a Skip button will appear, allowing users to skip the input.
* **Disallowed domains**: Specify a list of email domains that are not allowed. Users will not be able to enter email addresses associated with these domains.
