Package: wnpp Severity: normal Control: affects -1 src:libmail-verify-perl I intend to orphan the libmail-verify-perl package. I don't do much Perl this days and even less things with email.
The package description is: Mail::Verify provides a function CheckAddress function for verifying email addresses. First the syntax of the email address is checked, then it verifies that there is at least one valid MX server accepting email for the domain. Using Net::DNS and IO::Socket a list of MX records (or, falling back on a hosts A record) are checked to make sure at least one SMTP server is accepting connections.
