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.

  1. Open Single verification.
  2. Enter the email address (e.g. jane@example.com).
  3. Submit. VerifyMaill runs syntax, domain/MX, and mailbox (SMTP) checks and returns a result in a second or two.

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.

  • 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.
