Frequently Asked Questions
What does the email syntax validator check?
+
The validator checks RFC 5322 email format compliance: proper use of @ symbol, valid local part characters, valid domain format, and TLD presence. It also checks for common typos in popular domains (gmail, outlook, yahoo) and flags role-based addresses like info@ or support@.
Is syntax validation the same as email verification?
+
No. Syntax validation only checks if an email is formatted correctly, it doesn't check if the address actually exists or can receive mail. A syntactically valid email can still bounce. For full verification, use Cleanlist's email verification which checks mailbox existence, catch-all status, and deliverability.
Can I validate emails in bulk with this tool?
+
This free tool validates one email at a time for quick checks. For bulk email validation, verifying hundreds or thousands of addresses, use Cleanlist's batch verification via CSV upload or API. Bulk verification also includes mailbox-level checks that go beyond syntax.
