checking valid email address

[somaskarthic]

Hi

How can i check whether the email address is valid one ?
If that id exist , mail would be sent successfully . Incase if the sending
mail to an id fails , how can i identify the send mail failure in php ?
Though the mail is sent successfully or it fails , mail() method returns 1.
I can't differentiate.

Any other methods?

Pls post your replies

I surely hope not. That would be the chance of a life time for spammers!
