addresses and inputting them manually after events. There are a lot of
misspellings and bad communication, thus the need to determine what is
working and what is not. (To put this in perspective, the last mailing
that was sent had a 25% return rate).
This is the first time I've needed to think about problems like this,
really I am just trying to come up with the best way to handle it.

Subject: Re: Checking for Returned Mail in CF
I do this with a windows-scheduled Java app that runs every 5
minutes.
The main piece of advice I can give is to be sure before you
disable someone.
There are a lot of reasons for getting a returned email. You
need to make sure that you know why an email was returned (the return
type gives you some hints, but you can't rely on them to be correct -
AOL is a notorious example of this) and therefore whether to disable
that address or not.

I need a good way to check for returned mail in CF. I have an
application that manages a mailing list, and we are getting a
massive
amount of returned email.
What I would like to do is have CF check the mail server for
returned
mail periodically and disable the accounts without valid email
addresses.
Does anyone do this already, or have any advice?
