Is there any place on-line I can search for a person's e-mail address?
Or double check to see if the e-mail address I seem to remember still belongs to said person?

I'm trying to contact my best friend from elementary school. I've found him, but I can't find any contact info (yes, I'm sure it's him). I have an e-mail address he gave me, but it's quite a few years old, and I want to double check to see if it's still valid. Can anyone help me out here?

2. Send an email to that address. If it bounces back, it's no good.
If it doesn't bounce back, it might be good.

If he responds to it, it's definitely good.

5. Some of the ISP (or email services)directories are available

for searching, but people generally can opt-out of having their email address listed. There are also some meta-search services on the web that will search multiple directories.

It's not clear what you mean by 'found him' without contact info. In what sense is that finding him other than identifying that he's alive ? Or are you solely interested in contacting him through emai ?
