I making a bot that signs up to a particular website and I would like to know how to process the activation link.
Basically has anyone dealt with automated email activation,
-How do you get the activation link from the mailbox
- what mail service did you use

I know there is hard method of basically creating javascript code to check an inbox of a mailbox and click the link, but i am hoping for some tips, guidlines etc.
 
i would use a email service that still has pop3 access. this protocol is very easy. than do regex search for the url pattern. most of the time its enough to do a http get request on the provided link.
 
i think it is not possible to do with javascript.. you need server side language
 
Mailinator has a (paid) API that can return the email inbox in JSON format, which you can parse with JavaScript.
If you have the experience and don't want to pay, you can write a similar API to basically any email provider.
