How this service works
InboxGuards Email Test: Email address check: syntax, MX, disposable and role account (no SMTP probe). Checks one address without sending mail: RFC syntax, whether the domain accepts mail (MX, null MX, implicit A/AAAA), disposable domain (CC0 list), role account (info@, support@...), free provider. Verdict ok / risky / undeliverable. No SMTP probe, so mailbox existence is not confirmed. Bad syntax: 400, never charged.
Output
Returns a verdict of 'ok', 'risky', or 'undeliverable', along with flags indicating whether the email failed RFC syntax, whether the domain has valid MX/A/AAAA records (or a null MX), whether the domain is on a known disposable-domain list, whether the local part matches role account patterns (info@, support@, etc.), and whether the domain is a free email provider. No SMTP connection is made, so mailbox existence is not confirmed.
Example use cases
User registration email screening
“Before we create an account for this new signup, can you check if the email address they gave us — noreply@mailinator.com — is valid, disposable, or a role account so we can decide whether to accept it?”
CRM list hygiene before campaign
“I have a lead email address tdavis@info.acmecorp.com — can you validate it and tell me if it's deliverable, a role account, or on a disposable domain before I add it to our mailing list?”
Fraud detection on checkout
“A customer just submitted the email q7x9@guerrillamail.com on checkout — can you quickly check if that email is disposable, undeliverable, or risky so I can flag the order for review?”

Endpoint
GEThttps://api.inboxguardstest.com/v1/email-check?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, cheap, non-intrusive email check that covers syntax, DNS deliverability, disposable domains, and role accounts without triggering any mail delivery or SMTP handshake. It is ideal for pre-validation at signup forms, CRM hygiene, fraud screening, and lead qualification pipelines where speed and privacy matter. Prefer it over SMTP-probe services when you must avoid any contact with the recipient's mail server, or when cost per check needs to stay at $0.005.
Side effects
- 400 error returned for bad email syntax — not charged
- Domain has no MX record but has implicit A/AAAA fallback — may still be marked deliverable
- Disposable domain list may not include very new throwaway services
- SMTP-level bounces (mailbox does not exist) are not detected — false positives possible
- Network timeouts on DNS lookups for obscure domains
