Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How does the email verifier work?
Our real-time email verifier connects to the SMTP server to fetch information about the status, format, type, and server status of your target email.
Is Respona’s email verifier free?
To a degree. You can verify 5 emails every 24 hours. Sign up for your free trial with Respona to lift that limit.
Can a valid email still bounce?
Yes, for example, when an inbox is full or not set up to receive messages from outside their organizations. These are called “soft” bounces.
What is a “catch-all” email?
A “catch-all email” is a type of email setup that collects any emails sent to a domain, even if the specific email address doesn’t exist, helping to capture messages that might otherwise get lost or undelivered. However, you shouldn’t reach out to catch-all emails as there’s a risk of getting flagged as spam – since the address you messaged doesn’t actually exist, even though the email was technically delivered.
Will the person know I checked their email?
No. The email verifier does not send an actual email to check the validity of an address, so the person has no way of knowing whether their email was verified or not.
