The Mailgun Advantage
Verify emails with someone whose business is sending email. With more than 250 billion emails sent every year, we’ve hashed the majority of active email addresses. We know what’s deliverable and what’s not.
Plus, by using Mailgun’s validations alongside our sending and other deliverability tools, you don’t have to worry about the time and effort necessary to integrate different products. And like our other products, Mailgun Validations is GDPR compliant.
Not sure if your lists need a clean? With Mailgun, you won't spend your money if you don't need the service. Bulk Preview runs bulk validations on a statistically significant random sample of your list for free. Once run, we show you the sample result so you can decide if you need Validations to clean your list or not.
Validation based on billions of sent emails
RFC states the formal rules for email addresses. However, in the real world ESPs accept addresses that are not RFC-valid, and reject addresses that are.
When we built our validator, we did based on real-world data + RFC spec to ensure more accurate validation.
Custom ESP grammar
All major ESPs have their own set up custom grammar that impact whether an email address is valid in the real world.
We’ve integrated custom grammar checks for Gmail, Hotmail, and Yahoo into our email validator and are always adding more custom grammar checks as we discover these rules.
Protect Your List From Typos
“Did you mean yahoo.com?”
People make typos all the time. Yahoo.com can easily become yaho.com and when it does, you can miss out on connecting with that customer.
That’s why we built in a suggestion service into our email validation service. When we have a suggestion for a common typos, we’ll return it along with invalid status, so you can offer the suggestion to your user.
