When the user subs, generate a token in a DB table. Send the token to the user via email with a URL to click. Use mime/alternative if you want to send html and plain text so their client can choose the rendering method. If you get the click where the token matches (and perhaps first name or similar), they've confirmed their desire to subscribe. Do what you need to do with the confirmation and remove the token from the table. Record a history of IP etc to show that they DID indeed confirm their sub. Gives you proof that they asked for it if they contend it's spam. -- My mind not only wanders, it sometimes leaves completely. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
