RE: email/SMTP validation

Hi Tim

Scott Klement produced an email validation routine back in 2003 that would
first check the syntax of the email address and then look for an MX record
to determine if the domain name was real.

I can't find the link for the tool, perhaps Scott will jump in with the
address.

All the best

Jonathan

Subject: email/SMTP validation

I am interested in validating an email address. No just the syntax but if
it's a valid email address. I've heard that that's called "smtp validation".




Has anyone done this who can give some suggestions?



Thanks
