yes it works
but i was wondering if it is deprecated? 
on post() function is not set any type of filtering by default?

If you have xss_filtering enabled globally, or if you are using xss_filter in form_validation... Otherwise, you should be fine.

There is a second parameter to input->post('email', TRUE);
Will use xss_clean filtering...
