Re: E-mail Validation

There are innumerable email validation functions in the code archives. http://php.net/links.php Note that an RFC-compliant test would have a RegExp about three (3) pages long... And you *still* can't be 100% certain the email is any good at all -- It only makes sure it's syntactically correct, not valid. You could pound against some MX records with lookup and whatnot (see the list archives) but even that isn't too useful, since some servers refuse to respond, others always respond positively no matter what, and ... Pick the validation that looks "best" and try it out. ----- Original Message ----- From: Bazko <csgriggs@honors.unr.edu> Newsgroups: php.general Sent: Monday, December 11, 2000 9:53 PM Subject: [PHP] E-mail Validation > > > SSorry about all of the questions today, > But I have made up a discussion page with php and want to put in email > validation for users posts, can any one help me out on this. > > > Xz > > --- > Cole S.
