This is probally in the wrong section, but I'll ask anyways.

I want to implement a program in C/C++ that validates an email by first checking for proper syntax, then validating the domain name, and finally the mailbox name.

The propblem iv'e run into is, I dotn know how to validate the mailbox name, or even if its possible. Is there any way to send a psuedo email just to see if the mail box is in exsistence.

Thnx.
