You can simply change the field type in your sync table to Email without affecting the sync. The setting to make it text is just defaulted but you're able to change it without affecting the sync.
Hi - unfortunately, that's not possible. That's what I first thought to do. On realizing that's not possible, I thought I would create a secondary field that 'equals' this first one, but IS an email-formatted field.
Qrew LegendI think that Chayce's solution would have worked on any field that was not the key field, so thank you Chayce. Did not know that. Meanwhile just create a formula email field
[my email field in text format]
