Remarks

FindUsersByEmail returns a list of membership users where the email address matches the supplied emailToMatch for the configured applicationName.

The SqlMembershipProvider performs its search using a LIKE clause against the emailToMatch parameter. Any wildcards that are supported by SQL Server in LIKE clauses can be used in the emailToMatch parameter value.

The results returned by FindUsersByEmail are constrained by the pageIndex and pageSize parameters. The pageSize parameter identifies the maximum number of MembershipUser objects to return in the MembershipUserCollection. The pageIndex parameter identifies which page of results to return, where 0 identifies the first page. The totalRecords parameter is an out parameter that is set to the total number of membership users that matched the emailToMatch value. For example, if 13 users were found where emailToMatch matched part of or the entire email address, and the pageIndex value was 1 with a pageSize of 5, the MembershipUserCollection returned would contain the sixth through the tenth users returned. totalRecords would be set to 13.

Leading and trailing spaces are trimmed from the emailToMatch parameter value.
