OKe my following thing.

I am about of getting very sick of the whole newsletter thing. Not because it doesnt work, cuase there are lots of mails being entered. Maby tomuch ? lol.

However like 5% of all those mails do not exist. Can i read the mail using php intercept the mails that say User Unknow or otherwise for delete , but have the good mails stay on server.

I don't see why you would spend time writing this yourself... there are already so many scripts/programs available :)

preferred ones are clamav+spamassassin+procmail :)
