Re: check email exists under Windows NT!

> Is it posiible to check that an email exists before confirming a form > under windows NT ? > Thanks There are several email verification scripts floating around in PHP archives. Most just make sure the email "looks" good for the usual formats. None, I think, impelement the full 3-page Regular Expression it would take to correctly validate an email *just* to see if it conforms to the rules for a valid email. A few may actually contact the "server" portion of the email address and ask that server if it's a valid email. However, some such servers lie, and say "Yes" rather than check. There is no way to be 100% sure the email works. You have to decide how important it is to check how carefully. -- Visit the Zend Store at http://www.zend.com/store/ Wanna help me out? Like Music?
