Hello all,

I need to find out some information on how to verify phone plus
address information upon user signup. Is there any custom scripts and/or
modification's for listmail pro to do something like this? If not, I need someone with experience to custom code listmail pro to verify user's information.

Thanks,

DJ

Do you mean that you want the field to be "checked" upon form submission, in case data format does not match a phone number? You might do this with JavaScript.

Not that type of validation, Im talking about Validating an address the user types in against USPS address database or something worldwide.

Daniel,

While I am not familiar with ListMail Pro, I can tell you that many of our customers do exactly what you are wanting to do. Our service are straight web services, so implementing them is normally very easy. You can use HTTP GET, HTTP POST or SOAP to connect to, and communicate with our services.

The pricing for ADDval is $19.95 per month, and one cent ($0.01) per transaction.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thank you,

Included with ListMail is a file ./xtra/signup-xtra.php. When copied to the main ListMail folder this file will run after your users subscribe. This script can very likely be used to verify your users' custom-field-stored address information. Failing the test could modify the user's information, perhaps to say "Unverified" in another custom field, for example.
