in reply to sendmail in Perl to handle false/bogus/undeliverable email address

How about lightening up the load on your mail server by checking the validity first. Email::Valid will tell you if the address will even make it out of sendmail.

    I was thinking about that. However I don't even have an account on this web server, so installing a Perl module is not an option (too bad). Thanks for your suggestion though.

      Read this. You can't expect to have the full bastion of modules available on every box. Just set up your own local module library.
