Six layers of validation run automatically on every address you check.

MX Record Lookup

Disposable Detection

Flags temporary email services from a database of 10,000+ known domains.

Role Account Check

Identifies generic addresses like info@, support@, and admin@ that hurt engagement.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the email address checker work?

The checker runs each address through four steps: syntax validation for formatting errors, domain lookup to confirm registration, MX record check to verify mail delivery is possible, and a direct SMTP connection to confirm the mailbox accepts incoming mail. Results are returned in under 2 seconds.

2. How accurate is the email address check?

BillionVerify achieves 99.9% accuracy by combining syntax validation, DNS lookups, MX record resolution, and direct SMTP verification. This multi-layer approach catches invalid, inactive, and risky addresses that single-check validators miss.

3. What types of email address errors does it detect?

The checker detects syntax errors (missing @ symbol, invalid characters, malformed structure), unregistered domains, missing MX records, inactive mailboxes, disposable email addresses, and role-based accounts like info@ and support@.

4. Can I check multiple email addresses at once?

Yes. Upload a CSV to verify thousands of addresses in bulk and download cleaned results in minutes. Or use the real-time API to check addresses programmatically as they come in from your forms or CRM.

5. Is the email address checker free?

Yes. You get 100 free checks every day with no signup and no credit card required. The free tier includes every validation feature — syntax, domain, MX, SMTP, and disposable detection.

6. Do you store the email addresses I check?

No. All checks run in real time and we never store the addresses you submit. Data is encrypted in transit and deleted immediately after processing.
