WCF / ASMX :: Check If Email Address Actually Exists?
Feb 9, 2011
How can I check if an email address actually exists?
I have a list of email addresses which I want to screen for dead email accounts (without sending an email msg with a hyperlink). Is there a web-service for this? Or C# code (which I prever instead of sending the data to someone else)?
In addition to the process of regex syntax validation of Email Addresses entered by users, I'm trying to check if the entered email address is a real one and does exist?The best I could achieve is to "Ping" the host the email address is associated with. But there are some other terms in the industry like Handshaking with Email Server, etc.not necessarily with 100% confirmation accurary!
I want to validate the email id in clients side, so that to prevent the postback of page to server, and every user should registered with email id... so i want to validate email id at client side.. i.e. should be check it is exist in the database or not.
I'm trying to error handle a registration aspx/c# page on my application and want to run a check whether the email address that a user has tried to register already exists as the email address is used as a primary key in my database.
I have tried IF NOT EXISTS/IF EXISTS but these dont give the desired effect so was wondering if there was another way around it?
I want to check the entered email id already exists in my database or not. For that I need the Text box lost focus event so that I can call it in update panel trigger asynchronously. whereas in my event I can check whether the entered value exists in database or not.
In the new user registration page, how to check whether the email id entered by a user is valid? I want to check the entered email id actually exists before the user submits his information. do not give code for checking email id string using regular expression, I want to check whether the entered email id actually exists.
I'm trying to performa an ajax validation for e-mail address. I need to know if user is already registered so I need to check it in my database. There is similar example:
I have managed to expose the MEX endpoint of my WCF service and I can access it with the address like [URL] (example) and get the WDSL. So no problem there.
However, my WCF test page shows the address wrongly by using the server's name instead of the DNS name. And if I click on the link on the test page it won't work (can't get WSDL).
The WCF test page looks like this:
MyService Service
You have created a service.
To test this service, you will need to create a client and use it to call the service.
[URL]
The WCF service is hosted in IIS6. I would like to have a test page with the correct WSDL address so users can see the WSDL quickly in the browser just by clicking on the WSDL address.
In short: How can I change the MyServerName to inter.mycompany.com on the WCF test page? Can this be specified somewhere in the Web.config?
I am building an email feature in my website (jobs site). By using this functionality, recruiters will be able to send emails to candidates. I want an option so that the user can also set 'From Address' and the email should be ANTI-SPAM compliant.
How me can validate a email textbox to take only valid email address if error occur it show the error message in this textbox or as a tooltip. because in the form there is no space to show error message.
here is sender email but i want there wasn't any email address.I mean i want when users click on button and send me an email there wasn't any email address in sender details.
I tried to illustrate the problem by providing the following instructions, unfortunately the data was deleted and the example failed. It is now working. I have been working through one of Scott Mitchells ASP.NET Application Tutorials Title "Using TemplateFields in the GridView Control"
The URL is ...
The example demonstrates a temporary field being used in different ways, one of which involves dates in a Calender. If the HireDate in the example is deleted or not available the program fails. Providing the date is a valid date it works fine....
i am building a project using C# Asp.Net in which i am registering users with a user id, now my question is that how to check that the user id is already exists in the user table or not when user trying to register, i am using sql server 2000?
i have two datatable, while adding rows in second datatable, i want to first check whether the id in the second datatable matches as in the first datatable, if not only then it should be added in the second datatable, else it should display a message...
i dont have any Primary Key defined on any column, so the rows could be repeatative.
