How this service works
Use when an agent has an email address from a form, a scrape or a CRM and must decide whether it is worth sending to. Screens the address: syntax, DNS mail exchanger, disposable domain, role account, free provider and common typos. It does not verify that the mailbox exists. A DNS failure answers 503 and is not charged.
Output
Returns a structured screening result indicating whether the email passes syntax checks, whether the domain has valid MX records, whether the domain is a known disposable provider, whether the address is a role account (e.g. info@, admin@), whether it is from a free provider, and whether there are likely typos. Does not confirm that the mailbox actually exists. DNS failures return a 503 and are not billed.
Example use cases
CRM lead quality gating
“We scraped a batch of leads and I want to filter out junk before importing — can you check whether contact@tempmail.org is a disposable domain, has valid DNS mail records, and passes syntax checks?”
Signup form abuse prevention
“Someone just signed up with noreply@company.com — can you tell me if that's a role account and whether it's worth sending a welcome email to?”
Outbound campaign pre-screening
“I have the email sales@acme.corp from a web scrape — can you validate it for syntax, check that the domain actually has MX records, and flag it if it looks like a free provider or a throwaway address?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.paywallwatch.com/v1/email/verify?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you have an email address from a form submission, web scrape, or CRM and need to determine whether it is worth attempting delivery — particularly when you want to catch disposable domains, role accounts, free providers, and typos cheaply before committing to an outbound send. Prefer this over full mailbox-existence verification when you want a fast, inexpensive pre-filter that does not trigger SMTP handshakes or risk sender reputation issues.
Side effects
- DNS lookup failure returns HTTP 503 and is not charged
- Invalid or missing email query parameter returns a 4xx error
- Temporarily unresolvable domains may return 503
- Malformed email strings may be flagged at syntax stage before DNS is attempted
