graham23s Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Hi Guys, just curious as to if there was a way to check if an e-mail address is still in use? is there a test php can do to check it is still valid or is it more advanced than that? cheers guys Graham Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/127199-checking-an-e-mail/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratcateme Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 you can check if the domain has a MX record associated with it. the only way to check if the mailbox exists is to send an email to it and get the user to click a link in it.
