How to validate your recipient email address 

Email Validation – Why It Matters

Email Validation helps you verify recipient addresses before sending emails — filtering out invalid, risky, or undeliverable contacts. This improves inbox delivery and protects your domain from being blocked due to high bounce rates.

Why You Should Validate Your Emails

Email validation is not just a cleanup tool — it’s a deliverability booster and reputation shield.

Key Benefits:

• Improve Inbox Delivery: Reach real people, not invalid or fake addresses.

• Reduce Bounce Rates: Minimize email failures and rejections.

• Avoid Domain Blacklisting: High bounce rates can damage your domain reputation and trigger blocking by major email services.

• Protect Your Sender Score: ISPs (like Gmail, Outlook, etc.) monitor sender performance. Validating your list helps keep your score high.

• Increase ROI on Campaigns: Better list quality = better engagement, open rates, and conversions.
