Building Web Service Wrappers for an XML-based System Validating E-mail Addresses with ASP When Corporate Politics and SEO Collide |
- Building Web Service Wrappers for an XML-based System
Giving externalÂor internalÂclients direct access to existing applications isn't always practical, secure, or flexible.

DevX, April 19, 2005 - Validating E-mail Addresses with ASP
We've all been faced with the problem of validating an e-mail address that a user has entered into one of our Web forms. Too often the validation stops at simply checking that the text submitted contains the "@" and "." characters, but for many applications this really isn't good enough. This article starts by briefly explaining the situation and then walks you through building a page that takes an e-mail address and checks its validity by performing a MX lookup on the address's domain.
