email verification

hi there

I'm building a membership area.with some automation when the user goes to
the register page and registers an email is sent to the person registering
(CDONTS) and only until the email is returned the account is activated. How
can I do this ?
I can send an email but don't know what to do in terms of the user returning
the email, how can this be captured and then checked on the database ?

Thanks

You can put a return Web URL in the email text which points to your
activation form. Usually an activation code is needed which you could
supply as a query string then check against the database.

Re: email verification

download the free version of aspprotect www.aspprotect.com
then check out how they did it by looking at the code where it sends out an
email with a link that must be clicked on.

you should be able to learn all you need to write your own.
