Re: Adding Email Validity Test to the existing script.by BazB (Priest) |

The only way to really check if an email address is valid is to send something to it. Angel's suggestion (++) will allow you to check if the email address looks like a valid email address, but not if it actually is valid. Update: Abigail's RFC::RFC822::Address module seems to be an alternative email validation module. If the information in this post is inaccurate, or just plain wrong, don't just downvote - please post explaining what's wrong.
