Verify the existence of an email in ASP.NET

3

I would like to know if there is any way to verify if an email is real. I already used the SMTPCLIENT of C # to send an email, but it does not tell me at once if the email is valid or not.

The Idea is like simulating an email, but the answer is immediate.

I am developing in ASP.NET C #.

I would like to know what procedure I can use. I hope you can help me, Thanks

There is no such functionality under the protocol SMTP , the most approximate that you could achieve is to send an email where the person enters a link to verify that it arrived correctly, but it will be a manual operation.

It is the same thing that is implemented when you register in a site, which sends an email which when browsing confirms the registration.

It is not a limitation of the language, simply the mail protocol does not support this that you are looking to implement.

But an alternative could be:

Check if Email Address Really Exist or not Using C #

but here you would be running socket command against the smtp service to see if it responds with the existence of the mail, I have not tried it, but it could be an option.
