you can do this very simply.
take the email address from the signup page
store it in a field in database called EMAIL_ADDRESS
generate a unique random number and store it in a field called RANDOM_NUMBER
send the email with a link back to your site to a page that grabs the email
address and random number from the query string.
if they both match, update a field called VALIDATED
its really not that much at all
get it started and let me know if you get stuck anywhere

I need to find a script that whereas a user signs up for your website
and when he hits submit, an
email goes to his email box with a confirmation link (generated by
random number) for him to click
so to ensure he has a valid email address. Does anyone know of a
package or series of scripts that works with this? I'm using CDO mail
in ASP.
Thanks
