How this service works
Email address check: syntax, MX, disposable, role and free-provider flags. Validate an email address without sending mail: syntax, MX records, disposable-domain list, role account and free-provider flags, plus a verdict.
Output
Returns a JSON object with the original email, a boolean has_mx indicating whether the domain has valid MX records, a verdict string summarizing deliverability, a disposable boolean flagging throwaway email providers, a role_account boolean identifying addresses like info@ or support@, and a syntax_valid boolean confirming the address is well-formed.
Example use cases
Pre-send deliverability check
“I'm about to email john.doe@startup.io — can you verify it has valid MX records and isn't a throwaway address before I hit send?”
Signup form fraud screening
“A new user just registered with temp-mail123@guerrillamail.com — check if that's a disposable or fake email so I can decide whether to block the signup.”
CRM list hygiene
“We're cleaning up our contact list — can you check whether sales@bigclient.net is a legitimate role account with working mail servers, or if we should remove it?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://sift.srv1996466.hstgr.cloud/v1/email-check?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, cheap, pay-per-call email validation with MX checking, disposability detection, and role-account classification in a single call — especially in agentic workflows where you pay only on success via x402 on Base. Prefer it over full email verification services when you don't need SMTP probing or need sub-cent pricing at scale.
Side effects
- Missing or malformed email query parameter returns a 400 error
- Payment not settled via x402 results in a 402 response and no charge
- DNS timeout when checking MX records may cause delayed or failed response
- Unusual TLDs or private mail servers may produce inconclusive has_mx results
- Very new or obscure disposable providers may not be flagged as disposable
