    Use a library

    Please, no. If someone wrote email address “validation” complex enough to warrant a library, then their code is almost certainly wrong.

    or check for only the @ and then send an email confirmation.

    Yes. Do that.

    If your boss demands a more detailed check at input time, then make it display warnings, not errors, and continue to the confirmation sending step if the user chooses to ignore the warning.
