View 2 RepliesCurrently, to avoid errors from being thrown up due to invalid email addresses, I do the following:
Dim mailAddress As MailAddress
Try
mailAddress = New MailAddress("testing@invalid@email.com")
Catch ex As Exception
'Invalid email
End Try
However, rather than depending on Try..Catch, is there a way of validating that the email address will be 100% valid for the MailAddress type?I know there a plenty of regex functions out there for validating emails, but I'm looking for the function which the MailAddress type uses to validate its addresses.
Are there any IP Address filters or masks available in Windows Forms as per following screenshot? A backslash shouldn't be allowed or it should be filtered somehow.

View 1 RepliesI would like to know if there is a simple way to validate an e-mail address? I have seen many ways that appear to use functions but I would like to use something simple because currently my error control is done like this:

Else
ErrorProvider1.SetError(txtEmail, "")
Is there a way to use the same type of syntax but instead of checking if the textbox is empty, check if it a valid e-mail address? I know the regular expressions can be used, but how in this circumstance?

I'm trying to create an application that sends an email to an smtp-server. The server is not set fixed, but will be looked up according to the domainpart of the email-address where the email should be sent to.
[Code]...
It would be quite useful, to know if the message was accepted by the mailserver and the message was successfully sent. What I am able so far is, that I can get the SMTP-Server error code (if there was an error (StatusCode 5xx) by using the System.Net.Mail.SMTPClient Object and its SendAsync Function. There, if there was an error, I get an Exception-Object in the Callback-Event of the SMTPClient
I'm well aware that not every mailserver will tell me if the mailaccount truly exists and then reject my mail with an errorcode but instead just accept the message and then delete it. Therefore I would be grateful for another Method to check if the mail was sent (note: not read, that would be the read confirmation)
The final purpose would be: Try to send an email to a recipient using it's domains mailserver and if it fails, proceed according to the errorcode (user does not exist -> abort / mailserver did not respond -> use another mailserver if available).
I'm trying to write an Office 2007 COM Add-in which will check some rules before mail is send. Below test code works but I have several warnings in VS2010

I am building a program which relies on getting info from a twitter user. My idea was, I could either: A. Search the twitter user's feed for the current time. Or B: Get a email notification when he tweets, and send a sound. If I go with I would need to know how to search a webpage, get the time, and ring a sound if the time is present. If I go with B, I would need to know how to check email, and play a sound if a new email is recieved. Which one should I go with, and how would I do the things that I would need to know?

For example, check if 10.1.2.3 is between 10.0.1.1 and 10.9.255.255.
I could also do with this working for IPv6 for futureproof my code.

View 7 RepliesI have a txt file with a few settings that get loaded into the Program. These are put into an array. As the array holds different types (int, string, dates etc) its set to object type.
What i am trying to fingure out is how to check the date is a valid format, by returning a false value so i can have a msgbox pupup and say the date in the file is invalid. I cant use isdate() on the string from the file as even if the date format is correct its a string not a date type so i have to convert it first (which is the point it throws an error).

I have an VB.NET application. This Application is permanently resident in memory and minimized to the tray area because we use it very often. The problem comes in when we VPN into a client's site. These VPN connections trash all other network connections to and from our machines.Then every time my VB.NET application refreshes its database, errors start occurring, because the machine has lost connectivity to the SQL server, however, these are not at the connection level, but only when the reader attempts to read.
I am checking for connection.open, but because of the SQL connection pooling, I just get a previous connection that was valid before the network was cut. Is there anyway to check if an actual SQL connection is valid, prior to re-issuing a connection from the pool?[code]...

One way to do it is to read the whole html using
dim reader as new streamreader(response.getresponsestream) dim str as string = reader.readtoend and then check the html for any unique string (e.g. "log out"), to tell if the login is successful.
But reading the entire html is too long, so how do I shorten the process?
I tried
Dim str as string = response.getresponseheader("Set-Cookie")
But str is a blank string.
