Can you tell me where in the directory hierarchy the XML file should be installed?

Thank you.

Suggestion: Check all users. By failing put them back into "Have to validate their email adress" usergroup!

i dunno what s wrong with this mod in my forum . it was working well but now it rejected many emails aol , hotmail and even yahoo !!! true emails !!

disabled for now !

But then... I have similiar problem Mecho stated above. They can register, but no confirmation mail ever sent to Yahoo, Gmail or Hotmail. I had to disable it. Any hints? :erm:

Appreciate the effort. Thanks! :)

This code does not work and WILL RETURN FALSE POSITIVES AS CODED.

The comparator code for a valid response with substr() is coded wrong and also checks the wrong response it appears. The defaults for the below init seem to guarantee a false positive.
EDIT: I see the reason now for the false positive, but I don't like that idea. We need all or nothing. This is like a false sense of security as is. This can be great however and should be!

Sets this positive to start. I'm pretty sure that should be the opposite for sanity. In my testing and simple knowledge anyway.

It can work as far as I can tell with my own testing and modifications, so far. I tested it against my sever and yahoo with my fixes as working. But I don't want to get ahead of myself. There may be more pitfalls I missed in my simple debugging.

EXCELLENT IDEA YOU GOT HERE!

If you get it working, could you advise and provide your version?

I'm trying to figure out improved ways to stop spammers who are registering with false email addresses and posting garbage.

Thanks ... :)

I'd be more than happy to test out a beta version if it's attached as troubleshooting/beta for everyone to see the code.

I have been getting a lot of these lately, hopefully this will prevent the high amount of "Awaiting Confirmation" Users.
