Verify Email Recipients

A way to possibly determine valid/invalid email addresses. I would recommend being very careful about doing this because your IP address may be flagged as a potential spammer by the mail server (because you are probing for valid/invalid email addresses). This Chilkat functionality existed for many years, before this kind of activity became a problem. The functionality remains only because it is useful for some to test with their own SMTP servers.

// Important: Don't forget to include the call to System.loadLibrary
// as shown at the bottom of this code sample.
package com.test;

import android.app.Activity;
import com.chilkatsoft.*;

import android.widget.TextView;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class SimpleActivity extends Activity {

  private static final String TAG = "Chilkat";

  // Called when the activity is first created.
  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    boolean success = false;

    //  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    //  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    CkMailMan mailman = new CkMailMan();

    //  SMTP connection settings...
    mailman.put_SmtpHost("smtp.example.com");
    mailman.put_SmtpUsername("MY_SMTP_USERNAME");
    mailman.put_SmtpPassword("MY_SMTP_PASSWORD");
    mailman.put_SmtpSsl(true);
    mailman.put_SmtpPort(465);

    //  Create a new email object
    CkEmail email = new CkEmail();

    email.put_Subject("This is a test");
    email.put_Body("This is a test");
    email.put_From("myemail@example.com");
    success = email.AddTo("person1","person1@example.com");
    success = email.AddTo("person2","person2@example.com");
    success = email.AddTo("person3","person3@example.com");
    //  The SMTP server smtp.example.com won't know anything about an email address @somewhere_else.com
    success = email.AddTo("person3","person4@somewhere_else.com");
    //  ...

    //  Verify recipients.
    //  **** See the warning about using this API method in the description above.
    //  (An SMTP server only knows valid email address for its own domain.  For example,
    //  smtp.example.com *may* only know if person1@example.com is valid or invalid, but does
    //  not know anything about the validity of email addresses having other domains.)
    CkStringArray badAddrs = new CkStringArray();
    success = mailman.VerifyRecips(email,badAddrs);
    if (success != true) {
        Log.i(TAG, mailman.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    int i = 0;
    while (i < badAddrs.get_Count()) {
        Log.i(TAG, badAddrs.getString(i));
        i = i + 1;
        }

    Log.i(TAG, "done.");
