Limiting Company Results to only those people with a useable email address

I'm just starting out on ImdbPro.  Is there a way to limit results of a search by company to only those individuals (executives, assistants, etc.) who have a useable email address?  I assume that most emails sent to addresses like info@___ have a very small chance of getting a positive response.  I could be wrong.

I have written two screenplays for feature films, and I am trying to contact agents, managers, or production company executives who might be interested in reading them.

Maybe I am slow.  First, I would like to thank waqarmir12 for the quick response.  Waqarmir 12 said that I should use the following query filter:   site:imdb.com has_email:1 

My problem is:  I don't have a clue as to where to put that.  When I put it in the search box for IMDbPro -- the one that says "Search and discover" -- I get this message:  "Your search returned no matches".

I typed it in Google.  I get 4 responses, but they are not even close to what I am looking for.

I clicked on the little bell at the top right of the Community screen -- I saw waqarmir12's response listed and I clicked on it.  That got me nothing, so I don't even know how to ask waqarmir12 for more help.

Incidentally, at the bottom of this page, under "Responses" (to my original post), there is an icon that says "No responses!"  I'm not sure why waqarmir12's quick response isn't listed there.

Although I don't know my way around IMDbPro, I have been a librarian for many years, and I do know my way around databases and Advanced Searches.  I strongly recommend getting a team of librarians involved in re-designing IMDbPro's advanced searching.

@smaricic​ Unfortunately that reply was from a spammer, posting a nonsense reply and aiming to return to the thread later and fill their reply with spam links. 

The feature you request is not available, sorry, so we have converted your post into an Idea thread for future consideration, and such that other customers can comment and vote upon it.

Thank you, Col_Needham,

     I'm feeling kinda low right now -- spammed by someone named waqarmir12.
