Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2001 14:16:13 -0500 Hmmm, I'm not sure. You can leave the localhost and localuser blank. Unfortunately, I know nothing about NT or PWS and what environment variables are available, the script does use quite a few. I use it on UNIX/Apache/PHP4. Here is how I'm using it if that helps at all. Sorry I don't have more info for you. <?php

         require("email_validation.php3");

         $validator=new email_validation_class;
         $validator->timeout=10;

         if(IsSet($email)
         && strcmp($email,""))
         {
          if(($result=$validator->ValidateEmailBox($email))<0){
           echo "It was not possible to determine if $email is a valid

deliverable e-mail box address.\n";

           echo "Please inform the system administrator\n";
          }
          else {
            if($result){
              mail("user@domain.com", "Subject", "$message", "From:

$email");

            }
            else
            echo "Sorry, you've submitted an invalid email address<BR>Please

<A HREF=\"javascript:history.back();\" CLASS=\"bld\">try again</A>\n";

          }
         }
         else {
          echo "There was a problem submitting your email address, perhaps

you\n";

          echo "left the email address field blank? Please <A

HREF=\"javascript:history.back();\" CLASS=\"bld\">try again</A> or inform the system administrator\n";

         }
        ?>

Hi, I don`t think it is possible to check that an email actually exists but what you could do is make them confirm there email by sending them a code, if they enter the right code on the next page then they have recieved the email and it obviously exists.
