Bulk Email Validator (syntax · MX · disposable · role)
Cleans an email list without sending any mail. For each address it checks RFC syntax, resolves the domain's MX (or A) records, and flags disposable domains and role accounts (info@, support@, …).
What it does not do on the Apify cloud: it does not confirm that a mailbox exists, because outbound port 25 is blocked there. A valid result with reason: mx_only means "well-formed, and the domain accepts mail", not "this person's mailbox exists". If you run the Actor on your own infrastructure with smtpCheck: true, it also asks the mail server about the mailbox (RCPT TO, then RSET; nothing is delivered) and detects catch-all domains.
No scraping, no login, no third-party API key, no LLM. Public DNS and SMTP only.
Output (one row per email)
| field | meaning |
|---|---|
status | valid / invalid / risky / unknown |
reason | syntax, no_mx, smtp_rejected, smtp_accepted, mx_only, disposable, role_account, catch_all, smtp_timeout, smtp_tempfail, … |
domain, mx | domain and the MX host that answered |
disposable, role_account, catch_all | booleans (catch-all is null when SMTP check is off or inconclusive) |
smtp_code, smtp_message | raw SMTP reply for your own rules |
A SUMMARY record in the key-value store gives totals per status.
Pricing
Pay per event: one email-verified event per input address. Duplicates are removed before counting. The run stops when your spending limit is reached, and you are never charged beyond it.
Limits and honesty
- Some providers (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo) answer
RCPT TOfor every mailbox or throttle unknown senders. Those come back ascatch_allorunknown; that is a property of the provider, not a bug. - On the Apify cloud outbound port 25 is blocked, so the SMTP mailbox check cannot run there:
smtpCheckis off by default and the Actor returns syntax + MX + disposable + role results (reason: mx_only). Run the Actor locally (apify run) or on your own server withsmtpCheck: truefor mailbox-level results and catch-all detection. - The disposable-domain list is small and built in; it will grow in later versions.
