Hi, Are you using the test_pop3.php file that you showed me with the script that handles the bounced emails? If so, could you please show me a basic example of it working with it? My return_path is set as an email alias. (not a real address at the domain) .... rewards@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx So that bounces to the 'root' email account. But if you could show me a basic example I could work with it. Coz I'll run a script to talk to the database and flag the account in question. I looked at the code but there is nothing in there that defines from: or anything. Another way I was thinking if there was a way to look in the $body of the email for an email address.... I thought perg_match would do something like that but maybe not? Is there a PHP matching function/command? So it coulds search for '@' in the email $body and skip the $headers. Jerry Hello, That's tricky. What I do is to have a catch-all mailbox for my site domain. So, every message sent to a mailbox that does not really exist will be dropped in that catch-all mailbox. When I send messages to each user, I make the return path address be set to something like errors-user=domain@xxxxxxxxxx . For instance, messages sent to jusa_98@xxxxxxxxx by the PHP Classes site, will have the return path set to errors-jusa_98=yahoo.com@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx . Since these address really do not exist, they will be dropped in the catch-all mailbox for that domain. So, all I need to do is to run a script that polls the POP3 mailbox of my catch-all account and parse the To: address of the bounced messages to figure the subscriber address that is bouncing. Not all bounce message will have the To: address set correctly. The remaining message should be ignored. http://personals.yahoo.com.au - Yahoo! Personals New people, new possibilities.
