Hello,
Can someone recomend me a good book or website about building an optin
mailinglist?
I want a mailinglist that verifies by mail if the given mailacount exists,
by sending a confirmation mail to that adres. The user has to click the mail
to agree to the mailinglist.
thx,
Johan

This way you can hold an activation key for each email. You could create one for each
email by for example doing this:
$activationkey=md5($email.time());
And if you send an email you send a link with the activationkey+id that points to a script
that retrieves this activationkey and the id and checks it.

hoping

Where do you get those emails from? I mean where do you're storing them and loading it from?
