Actually it does do DNS checking. It doens't yet check to make sure that the mail will work, but it could easily be added. Manuel Lemos wrote:

Or you could always use the PEAR package: http://pear.php.net/package/Validate
That package only does textual validation of the e-mail address. It does not check against the DNS nor tries to ask the end SMTP server if it would accept e-mail to the specified address, like this does: http://www.phpclasses.org/emailvalidation
