Email Check and monitor

[Ila Murugu]

Hi ,

 

 

How wouid i check an email id is valid and it is there in a particular dns before sending any email through JES?

Also how would i track the time taken that the email message reaching the client id when i send a email message from java clinet through JES to any yahoo/gmail/or any other ids...

 

If you have any ideas that would be really helpful...

 

 

Thanks,

Ila.

The DNS lookup is the easiest. You can use what JES uses, dnsjava, to
perform a DNS query to see if the domain is valid.

There is no sure-fire way to test an address. You can connect to the
target email server and try to send it, but many servers will respond
the same way whether an address is valid or not as spammers have been
using this method to find valid addresses.

There is no straight forward and reliable method to determine the time
it takes to deliver the message.
