Email Validator   
http://www.bytefoundry.com

Email Validator checks deliverability of email addresses. It does so by first performing a DNS query on the domain name of each email address in order to determine the address of the mail server servicing that domain. Once the mail server is found, a connection is made in the same way as your ISP's mail server would make a connection. Email validator will first attempt to use the SMTP VRFY command to determine deliverability. If the VRFY command is enabled, the mail server will report whether the email address being tested is in fact deliverable, Email Validator will then close the connection and report the result. In many cases the VRFY command is disabled on SMTP servers. If this is the case for any given mail server, Email Validator will then attempt to simulate the delivery of an email message. During this process, the mail server will report whether or not it can accept a message for the email address being tested. Once this is reported, Email Validator will close the connection and report the result. NO EMAIL IS ACTUALLY SENT. Email Validator never gets to that point, so the owner of the email address will not receive any message as a result. Once a list of email addresses has been tested, the user may export all addresses along with test results or simply export all deliverable or non-deliverable addresses in order to clean an existing list or build a new one containing only deliverable addresses. The result for anyone who runs a mailing list, i.e. ezine and newsletter publishers, businesses, political parties, non-profit organizations, etc. can save time and money by sending mail only to deliverable addresses and not have to clean delivery failure notices out of their inboxes.

SpreadMsg Lite

SpreadMsg Lite is the FREE version of Compuquest, Inc's award-winning SpreadMsg software. The Lite version features an email scanning agent that searches the user's email waiting at their ISP or Exchange Server. EMail scanning and retrieval is supported for POP3 and IMAP email servers. For new messages waiting, it applies user-specified rules, like looking for specific text content, or for email "from" a specific person, or email containing specific words in the "subject", etc. If the user rules are met, wireless or instant messages are delivered or other action is taken, such as: parse and forward all or part of the original email; send a specific file somewhere; launch an external application, batchfile, or script; and more. And, "2-way query and response" features enable the remote user to ask SpreadMsg for specific information, which is then returned to the user using Instant Messaging, delivered to a wireless device, an email destination, or via dialout. Also provided is a sampling of other SpreadMsg software features available in three other upgrade versions of the software. In those features, additional "DataSources" for scanning, rule-application, parsing, and messaging are added. In addition to scanning email, data may be captured in real time from computer files, internet pages, spreadsheet data, other applications running on the user's PC, or live internet datafeeds. User rules act on this data to filter, extract, parse, send out messages, start other applications, etc. Message delivery also can be based on rules such as any change in data value, data above or below a specific numeric level or range, textual content match, repeated periodic timed delivery interval, and more. Powerful "remote control" features allow the user to control and change the configuration of SpreadMsg using a simple email message. External applications can be started or stopped, batch or script files run, and much more.

VirusCop is a simple freeware Windows program for reporting virus spam, erroneous e-mail bounces and other spam.

The many included complaint messages can be easily edited to suit your particular tastes.
