Comment:
Your proposed patch cannot be used, since getmxrr() is not available on
Windows platforms (until PHP5.3, actually), and as such cannot be included
in the core.

This is also the issue with other, more flexible DNS lookup functions in
PHP, such as checkdnsrr() and dns_get_record().

You can always define your own custom validation rule which performs the
proper DNS 'A' record check if you would like more control over the
criteria used to validate an email address.

Sorry, but I'm going to have to close this ticket. Please feel free to re-
open this ticket with a php4 & php5, cross-platform solution for deep
email checks. Thanks!
