Hey Bubblers,
we’ve just published a very useful and FREE plugin for verifying emails
Mailboxlayer lets you to thoroughly check and verify email addresses right at the point of entry into your system.
In addition to checking the syntax, the actual existence of an email address using MX-Records and the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), and detecting whether or not the requested mailbox is configured to catch all incoming mail traffic, the mailboxlayer API is linked to a number of regularly updated databases containing all available email providers, which simplifies the separation of disposable (e.g. “mailinator”) and free email addresses (e.g. “gmail”, “yahoo”) from individual domains.
Combined with typo checks, did-you-mean suggestions and a numeric score reflecting the quality of each email address, these structures will make it simple to automatically filter “real” customers from abusers and increase response and success rates of your email campaigns.
Hey @levon thanks for that! Just seeing that now.
Quick question, can we use this plugin to validate a list of emails extracted from a CSV Upload file?
Thanks
Thanks for reaching out!
I believe you can give it a try, it shouldn’t cost you anything . However atm we don’t have any demo showcase, unfortunately.
But if there are difficulties setting it up, you could post here more details, workflows, some screenshots , etc. and we’ll help you out.
Thanks for understanding.
I’ve tested different Gmail emails, as well as Yahoo, Outlook, and some others. The plugin works correctly and gives all the declared data. Kindly specify, which email were you trying to test and provide detailed screenshots of the issue you’re having.
Kindly provide us a screenshot not only with your email but also with the result you’re getting.
Also, please note that the third-party browser extensions may affect the plugin work, so please be sure you have disabled Add-Block or any alike extension.
First of all, I’d like to recommend you to check the plugin’s Live Demo and Demo Editor pages, there you can find the description of the plugin, short setup guide, and demo page editor (exemplary use case setup).
Before using the plugin in your app it is needed to create a new account on the Mailboxlayer site. From there you can retrieve the API key that you can later add to the plugin settings (it is a required step).
Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.

We regret to inform you that the plugin is currently hidden due to technical issues on the Mailboxlayer side.
However, we are actively working on resolving this issue, and we will notify you as soon as the plugin becomes available again. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
