I'm currently trying to set up a bot to collect email address via Connect/Lex using voice. I know this is near impossible to do without spelling it out character by character. I've tried setting custom slots, using AMAZON.EmailAddress, etc, but all options seem to mishear a lot of characters. Has anyone had any luck in implementing this? Thanks!

Sorry Kenny, using AMAZON.EmailAddress
is the best approach here.
Unfortunately you are always going to run into issues with email addresses as an address can effectively be a collection of random characters. If you are expecting a particular pattern of email addresses (such as from your company) then you can create your own custom slot with these examples which might have better luck.
