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. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux Asfaloth 2.4.21-rc2-ac2 #2 Don Mai 22 14:13:00 CEST 2003 i686 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
