MAILOMATIC NAME RESOLUTION HELP


Name Checking
    Although domain names are quite 'checkable', few commercial servers allow 'finger' requests from unknown perl scripts. That is, while it is reasonably simple to check whether a domain actually exists ( ie: mydomain.com.au ) it is very difficult - if not impossible - to find if a specific user exists (ie: user@mydomain.com.au). By sending potential subscribers a 'please confirm' mail,  by default we have checked that the user and domain are valid (fictitious or wrong addresses will generate a "post-failure" notice to the email account you put as the "return address" in your configuration script ). On the user side, it checks that the receipient is actually the one who wants to subscribe - surely a polite thing to do in this age of unreasoned spam .
