Verify a single email
Single verification is the fastest way to check one address — useful for spot checks, support tickets, or testing before you wire up the API.
From the dashboard
Section titled “From the dashboard”- Open Single verification.
- Enter the email address (e.g.
jane@example.com). - Submit. VerifyMaill runs syntax, domain/MX, and mailbox (SMTP) checks and returns a result in a second or two.
What you get back
Section titled “What you get back”Every single check returns:
- a status — the headline verdict (e.g. deliverable, undeliverable, risky, unknown);
- a sub-status — the specific reason (e.g. mailbox_not_found, accept_all, disposable);
- a quality score from 0–100 indicating confidence/risk;
- detected flags — disposable, role-based, free provider, accept-all.
See Understanding results for the full breakdown of each value.
Common results
Section titled “Common results”- Deliverable — safe to send.
- Undeliverable — the mailbox doesn’t exist or the domain can’t receive mail. Remove it.
- Risky / accept-all — the domain accepts everything, so existence can’t be confirmed. Send with caution.
- Unknown — the mail server didn’t give a definitive answer in time.
