        Good points.  I'm so used to Perl doing what I tell it to do that I 
wasn't thinking about that. =;)  So what about just checking the MX record for 
a domain?  Let's say someone entered x...@yagoo.com instead of x...@yahoo.com.  
Is that catchable or would there be problems with that as well?
