    Question Does anyone have an Idea how....

    to validate an email! I mean literally check to see if it really exists! What sort of service sends you back an email saying

    This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification.

    Delivery to the following recipients failed.

    I am thinking of a component that has a function that checks this somehow!

    Can anyone point me in the right direction? Please

    Thanks

    JH

    Not really. All you an do is wait till the mail bounces back.

    You can use a winsock control to send a test email to the address given. If successful then email address is valid.

    Search www.planetsourcecode.com for source to do this.
