Bulk Email Verifier - $1/1K | 99% Accuracy on Microsoft 365 Emails

Verify email lists in bulk before sending cold email campaigns. Tells you which emails are valid, invalid, disposable, role-based, or catch-all. Also detects the email provider (Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Zoho, etc.) so you can plan your sending strategy.

Just paste your emails and run. No external accounts or API keys to set up.

What You Get Per Email

Why the Provider Field Matters

Most verifiers just tell you valid/invalid. This actor also tells you what email system the domain runs: Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Proofpoint, Mimecast, Zoho, ProtonMail, or custom.

Why that's useful:

• Deliverability planning -- Microsoft and Google handle cold email differently. Knowing the provider helps you adjust your sending.
• Lead intelligence -- a company on Proofpoint or Mimecast is likely enterprise. A company on Zoho is likely SMB.
• Infrastructure insight -- if you manage email domains for clients, knowing the MX host and provider saves you DNS lookups.

How Verification Works

9 checks run in order. The actor stops at the first definitive answer:

1. Syntax check -- is the email formatted correctly?
2. MX lookup -- does the domain have a mail server?
3. Disposable check -- 5,000+ known throwaway domains
4. Role-based check -- department addresses (info@, support@, admin@, sales@)
5. Free provider check -- Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, ProtonMail, etc.
6. Microsoft 365 check -- definitive valid/invalid via Microsoft's own API (97-99% accuracy). This is where most other verifiers return "unknown." We don't.
7. Google Workspace check -- detects Google-hosted domains, verifies via SMTP
8. SMTP verification -- direct mail server check for all other domains
9. Catch-all detection -- tests if the domain accepts any address

Microsoft 365: Our Strongest Check

About 40-50% of B2B companies use Microsoft 365 for email. Standard SMTP verification doesn't work well on these domains because Microsoft blocks it. Most verifiers return "unknown" or "catch_all" for nearly half your business list.

This actor uses Microsoft's GetCredentialType API (the same check Microsoft's own login page uses) to give a definitive valid or invalid answer. 97-99% accuracy on the domains that matter most for B2B outreach.

Input

Pricing

$0.001 per email ($1 per 1,000). No subscription. No minimum.

Two Modes

Mode 1: Default (no setup) Leave SMTP fields empty. Uses Microsoft 365 API verification + syntax/MX/disposable/role checks. Covers ~40-50% of B2B emails with 97-99% accuracy. Other domains get flagged as unknown.

Mode 2: Full SMTP (with your VPS) Add your SMTP verification server URL. Enables direct mail server checks for ALL domains. Set up Reacher on a $3-5/month VPS with port 25 open.

Speed

• Microsoft 365 domains: 500-1,000 emails/minute
• SMTP verification: 100-300 emails/minute
• Adjustable concurrency (1-20 parallel workers)

FAQ

How accurate is it? 97-99% on Microsoft 365 domains (40-50% of B2B). 88-95% on other domains via SMTP. If you only use Mode 1 (no SMTP VPS), non-Microsoft domains will show as "unknown" -- still useful for filtering bad syntax, disposable, and role-based emails.

What does quality "risky" mean? The email might be deliverable, but sending to it carries risk. Catch-all domains, role-based addresses, and unverifiable domains are flagged as risky. You decide whether to include them in your campaign.

Can I use the results in Smartlead/Instantly? Yes. Export as CSV, filter by quality = good, and import the clean list.

What about catch-all domains? Detected and flagged. About 15-25% of B2B domains accept all addresses. We flag these as catch_all with quality risky so you can decide.
