Valid
Email address exist and is accepting emails. This is confirmed by communicating via SMTP. These emails are valid and safe to send mail.
Invalid
Email address do not exist or is not accepting mails. Sending mails to invalid email addresses will result in bounce.
Accept-all
Accept-all, also known as 'Catch-all'. These addresses are not verifiable, as their mail server accepts both valid and invalid addresses. So we cannot definitively verify.
Should I send emails to accept-all results?
We suggest you test your accept-all email addresses by sending a small batch of email campaigns to avoid high bounce rate.
Unknown
We were unable to definitively verify these emails as their mail servers were not reachable during verification. Unknown addresses are checked multiple times from different locations with varying interval before arriving at this result.
Disposable
These are temporary email address and should not be mailed as there is a very high chance of email bouncing.
