NYCPHP Meetup

[Peter Sawczynec]

The use of the captcha technique has become a type of industry standard.

I have found customers to quickly recognize and endorse this technique. 
The Pro PHP Security guidebook offers an elegant deployment of this
solution. 
Plus, I thought, that email validation(s) by any technique is fraught
with 
delays, failures and spoofing, likely making it too unreliable to use at
this 
potentially important new customer juncture.

Does anyone have any suggestions other then captcha.



I do think partial use of  email address validations using SMTP connect
would restrict a lot of these bogus mail subscriptions. you should find
a neat article here http://www.zend.com/zend/spotlight/ev12apr.php
