How does an email validator work?

An email validator tool checks the email address syntax, domain records, and other signals to see if the email is valid and can receive messages. It performs these checks in the background without ever sending an actual email.

Can an email sent to a verified address still bounce?

Yes, while an email validator significantly reduces the likelihood of bounces, it’s not an absolute guarantee. Soft bounces can still occur due to temporary issues such as a full inbox, an auto-responder, or a temporary server outage.

What is the difference between a hard bounce and a soft bounce?

A hard bounce is a permanent delivery failure, usually because the email address does not exist, is invalid, or the domain is blocked. A soft bounce is a temporary failure, often caused by a full mailbox or a temporary server issue. Validating your list removes hard bounces before you send.

What is a catch-all email address?

A catch-all (or accept-all) email server is configured to accept all emails sent to its domain, regardless of whether the specific inbox exists. While these can be valid, they carry a higher risk of bouncing or lowering engagement rates.

How does email validation protect my sender reputation?

Email service providers monitor your bounce rate. If you consistently send emails to invalid addresses, your sender reputation drops, and your future emails are more likely to be sent straight to the spam folder. Validating your list ensures you maintain a high sender reputation and land in the primary inbox.

Can I validate several email addresses at once?

No, you can only enter one email at a time with this free version. To check lists in bulk, you can sign up for a free account and use our bulk email verification tool.
