Create a guid or some other unique key you can associate with the email. Put that on the URL in the email you send, so when they click on it, you can look up the email address and mark it as validated.

I have seen this free .NET library that is designed for this very occasion- http://www.sharewareconnection.com/-net-email-validation-library.htm[^] It does a lot of different things so you should be able to make it work with your implementation. Try it out!

I think you can do like following : Make the url like
http://www.mycompany.co.uk?custId=customer@mail.com&GUID=936DA01F-9ABD-4d9d-80C7-02AF85C822A8While sending the Mail To Customer insert the mail id and Guid in DB or in a storage CustID GUID --------- ---------- customer@mail.com 936DA01F-9ABD-4d9d-80C7-02AF85C822A8 Now, When user Click on that url, he will comes to your sites, now you can retrieve CusID and GUID from query string. and validate with database if valid then you can also remove the entry from database too. This is just my idea.cheers, Abhijit CodeProject MVP My Recent Article : Exploring Session in ASP.Net
