As per my best knowledge there is a no direct way to check that particular email address is available in Gmail or yahoo database or not... there are few sites available with that you can manually able to check that this is valid email address or not but to implement same functionality in c# is not possible using regular expression you can check that enter email address is valid or not ( means it will follow the rule of standard email address) but you cant able to check that this email address is present in gmail or yahoo database or not

You can complete this task using DotNetOpenAuth.

Here is code for this-

    using DotNetOpenAuth.OpenId;
    using DotNetOpenAuth.OpenId.RelyingParty;

    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
      OpenIdRelyingParty rp = new OpenIdRelyingParty();
      var r = rp.GetResponse();
      if (r != null)
      {
        switch (r.Status)
        {
          case AuthenticationStatus.Authenticated:
            NotLoggedIn.Visible = false;
            Session["GoogleIdentifier"] = r.ClaimedIdentifier.ToString();
            Response.Redirect("Main.aspx"); //redirect to main page of your website
            break;
          case AuthenticationStatus.Canceled:
            lblAlertMsg.Text = "Cancelled.";
            break;
          case AuthenticationStatus.Failed:
            lblAlertMsg.Text = "Login Failed.";
            break;
        }
      }

    protected void OpenLogin_Click(object src, CommandEventArgs e)
    {
      string discoveryUri = e.CommandArgument.ToString();
      OpenIdRelyingParty openid = new OpenIdRelyingParty();
      var b = new UriBuilder(Request.Url) { Query = "" };
      var req = openid.CreateRequest(discoveryUri, b.Uri, b.Uri);
      req.RedirectToProvider();
    }

using System.Net.Mail;

using System.Net;

protected void BtnSendMail_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

string UserName = "";

string PassWord="";

string Reciever = "reciever@gmail.com";

NetworkCredential loginInfo = new NetworkCredential(UserName, PassWord);

MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();

msg.From = new MailAddress(UserName);

msg.To.Add(new MailAddress(Reciever));

msg.Subject = txtSubject.Text.ToString();

msg.Body = txtmsg.Text.ToString();

msg.IsBodyHtml = true;

SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com");

client.EnableSsl = true;

client.UseDefaultCredentials = false;

client.Credentials = loginInfo;

client.Send(msg);

Response.Write("<script>alert('mail sent')</script>");

}

Put the code inside Try..Catch and in the catch block you can display the exception message if the username and password are incorrect
