Email Verifier - Bulk Email Validation
Verify email addresses at scale using a 4-layer verification pipeline: format validation, DNS/MX lookup, SMTP handshake and disposable domain detection. Clean your lists before sending.
Verification Pipeline
- Format check - RFC 5322 compliance
- Disposable detection - 300+ known throwaway providers (mailinator, yopmail, guerrillamail, etc.)
- MX record lookup - confirms domain can receive email
- SMTP verification - connects to mail server, checks if mailbox exists
- Catch-all detection - identifies domains that accept all addresses
Result Statuses
valid- address exists and accepts mailinvalid- doesn't exist, bad format, no MX, or disposablecatch_all- domain accepts everything (can't verify individual mailbox)risky- MX exists but SMTP check inconclusive (server blocked port 25)
Input Example
{"emails": ["john.doe@company.com","test@mailinator.com","invalid-email","contact@startup.io"],"smtpCheck": true,"smtpTimeout": 5000}
Output Example
{"email": "john.doe@company.com","valid": true,"status": "valid","subStatus": "deliverable","formatValid": true,"mxValid": true,"smtpValid": true,"isDisposable": false,"isCatchAll": false,"mxRecords": [{"exchange": "mail.company.com", "priority": 10}],"durationMs": 823}
