We've used the following..
Advanced Maillist Verify (AMV) is a program that verifies the validity of
e-mail addresses in databases, address books and mailing lists. That's not
only a standalone program, but can be also easily integrated into existing
systems using open COM/ActiveX and CGI/ISAPI interfaces.
The package includes detailed documentation and examples (for most major
programming languages) for integrating Advanced Maillist Verify into
Internet/Intranet servers based on Active Server Pages technology from
Microsoft and ColdFusion from Allaire.
The program works on the same algorithm as ISP mail systems do. Mail servers
addresses for specified address are extracted from DNS. The program tries to
connect with found SMTP-servers and simulates the sending of message. It
does not come to the message sending - AMV disconnect as soon as mail server
informs does this address exist or not. AMV can find about 90% of dead
addresses - some mail systems receive all messages and only then see their
addresses and if the address is dead send the message back with remark about
it. Works with Socks5 proxy (to use in LAN).
The program supports all popular file formats - from simple mailing lists to
The Bat! and Windows address books, and not just shows non-existing
addresses, but also able to remove them from source lists and create
"exclusion" lists. ODBC SQL support is there, allowing to work with DBMS
like MS SQL, Oracle, MySQL, MS Access and others, and even with Microsoft
Excel.
Advanced Maillist Verify can save time and money for businesses who send
newsletters to their clients, nonprofits who send bulletins to their
members, or any person or business that needs to maintain a clean e-mail
contact list.
Ordering.
AMV is shareware. If you use this software after the 30 day evaluation
period a registration is required. You can order the fully licensed version
of AMV over the Internet with any major credit card.

If you've made a payment, but haven't got a confirmation letter with your
serial number (registration code) within a reasonable amount of time (two
business days for credit card payments or two weeks for other payments),
please notify us about that! We're very sorry for any inconvenience caused
by those delays.
