What would be really cool is if services did some verification on the email
address. Even a simple MX lookup will block most of the fakes. Ideally a
nice little socket routine that does an MX lookup, connects to one of the MX
hosts, goes through the swing of sending mail and if it receives a 250 after
the RCPT TO it does a RSET and QUIT and assumes the email address is valid.

That would rock! :)
