#!/usr/bin/perl -w
#	Here's something that is of actual use, and should be relatively
#portable.
#	Given an email address and a mail server name check to see if
#the address is deliverable on that box. This can be used for address
#verification or spam relay checking.
#
#	The point of this is to show how you can take a generic handle
#and interact with it. In this example a socket is used.
