Well I know we can't delete people with dead email addresses...I guess that's a little downside to FLs, but what happens when we find members using our own email addresses for signing up?
I went through my fanlistings (changing my own email address and weeding out the dead URLs (unlinking them)) and I found ALOT of people using emails from my (now old) domain.
e.g. sailorvenus fanlistings webmaster moonation webmistress moon (various real names too)
And quite a few others with @moonation.org on the end, so I was wondering....
What do we do when we either find someone updated their information with a FAKE email (e.g. from my own domain) or signed up with an email from my own domain? Can we deny them? I'm unsure about this...so right now, I've left them alone (not deleting them...I just have to put up with bounces when I send emails).
Right now, I've implemented a check email against domain, script on my update and join forms to stop this from happening again. This checks that the username, domain and dns are REAL (basically it stops spammers) ...I HOPE that's allowed as it's not in the FL rules...just says a working email address....
It really doesn't take a genius for someone to do a mouse over to show the "email me" email from sign up and update forms and use that email...IF it's not already in use...
