Hi all,
I am trying to write a new routine to verify email addresses. I have already
written a small routine which validates the address for correct syntax.
However, I want to take it a few steps further.
I found a routine written for ASP
(http://CoverYourASP.com/ValidateEmail.asp) which not only checks syntax but
goes so far as to check that the domain exists and that the domain can also
accept email. The routine also goes one step beyond this and checks the
mailserver to see if the address actually belongs to any of its registered
users.
I am pretty sure that I can do the same thing in Cold Fusion but I am up
against a wall as to how. Also, I want to try and avoid passing anything to
an ASP page then back to a CF page.
Any ideas out there? Any tutorials on the subject?
Thanks in advance,
Nelson
