Seems like the general way is to create a mailbox (POP3 or IMAP) to
accept the bounces, then check it periodically and mark the emails as
invalid in your local database.
I would set threshholds so you don't mark something failed that only
bounced once - it could have been a mail setup error or

You really should use htmlspecialchars before showing any user
stipulated HTML to help prevent security holes. Also you can use short
tags (popular...) to make the HTML more readable. Eg:

Just to add, short tags are not recommended for conflicts with

Well, chop() is an alias of rtrim(), so it won't work here for, say,
trimming control characters at the end of the string like line feeds.
trim() is actually the best bit here.

Yes, that way it works. Thanx.
But the Windows version of the same code and the same php.ini ***does
not *** need the session_start()
because it has the session.auto_start = 1 inside php.ini.
The thing is, I think session.auto_start = 1 does not work on Linux.
Is this a bug?
