Its probably very easy to screen scrape the message to harvest every link in the confirmation message and do a wget on it! I must admit that I do not remember what the confirmation message looks like when signing up for sqlite but most of such mails have a link to click on or just need to reply to the mail. Both of the ways are very easy automate. I am wondering if paypal supports Domain Keys (or some other such mechanism) like yahoo does that ensures that the mail actually came from that domain. If they do then it would help to implement such checks for "blacklisted" (sic) domains such as paypal or ebay. Like other members mentioned before, I respond once in a blue moon too but don't mind having to confirm my membership every month or three. It is just going to be a little bit of hassle...
