How Does the Email Verifier Work?

  • safe: the email has a 97% deliverability.
  • riskier: the email has an 83% deliverability.
  • Automatically on every email the Email Finder finds — during exports with Find emails checked, and on Email Finder jobs. No extra step needed.
  • On your own list — check any list of email addresses at dash.evaboot.com/dash/mail/verifier/, at 0.5 credit per email checked.

What techniques are used to verify the emails?

Section titled “What techniques are used to verify the emails?”

Evaboot uses many different techniques to verify the validity of your emails:

  • SMTP validation: removes dead, invalid, and unresponsive emails from your list.
  • MX record check: confirms the email is in use and able to accept mail.
  • Catch-all check: checks against known catch-all email and domain databases.
  • Domain check: checks whether the email’s domain is real.
  • Spam traps: uses smart spam-trap indicators to remove honeypots.
  • Disposable check: detects temporary, disposable, and questionable emails.
  • Syntax check: confirms the email is typed correctly and all symbols are in place.
  • Graylist-proof: verifies some of the hardest-to-check ESPs.
  • Risk validation: removes emails containing high-risk keywords and TLDs.
