Hi,
I'm happy with the validation message for email field when the email is misformed.
But is there a way to print the same message when the email is blank (without setting it to required because it will make the form failed but without the same message under the field)
Cheers
Can you give me more information on what you want to do? Why isn't making it required a good way to allow you to have a validation message for the e-mail field? The malformed e-mail address stops the form from submitting as well.

The malformed e-mail address validation stop the form in a more proper way for what I need.
Just a matter of taste....
Please take a look at my website: http://www.wisedome.org/ make the 2 tests (blank and malformed), I think you'll understand why I prefer the email validation against global validation message!
Ah, I understand now. The malformed e-mail address is using JQuery to test to see if it is valid or not. You would have to come up with custom JS to test to see if blank.
Something like this:

My JQuery knowledge is fairly limited, so I am not sure how we have ours currently set-up to show the malformed warning. I'll check into that for you.
After a quick check, I can say, that the tooltip you see isn't generated by Gravity Forms. This seems like something custom to your theme.

In fact, it would be usefull to add the property required="required" when the field is required...
It's a attribut for email type input in html5.
Perhaps you could ask the developpers if it's plan, or give me a hint to know what I have to hack.

I managed to had $html5_attributes = "required = 'required'"; in common.php for email type, because all the email input type I use should not be empty.
A little bit of code in your part could be usefull for people using the html5 option for gravity...
Cheers
