# Toll402 Email Verifier

> Toll402 Email Verifier is a paid API for AI agents from toll402.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Validates an email address for syntax, MX/A DNS records, disposable-domain, free-provider, and role-account status, returning a 0-100 quality score.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability toll402-email-verifier-816aab25
```

Example prompt: Can you verify the email address john.doe@tempmail.com and tell me if it's valid, whether it has working MX records, and if it looks like a disposable or role account?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, low-cost ($0.001 per call) single-email verification that combines syntax checking, live DNS MX/A record lookup, disposable-domain detection, free-provider identification, and role-account flagging in one call with a composite quality score. Prefer it over heavier email validation services when you want a simple pay-per-use model without subscription overhead, and when you need the combined signal rather than just syntax or just deliverability alone.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or missing email parameter returns an error response
- Malformed email syntax (too short, missing @) may return valid=false with low score
- DNS lookup timeouts may cause hasMx to be false even for legitimate domains
- Very new domains may have incomplete DNS propagation, yielding incorrect MX results
- Email addresses at the maximum 254-character length may have edge-case handling

## How this service works

The OpenRouter for AI-agent tools: one gateway, one wallet, every capability. Built-in tools, forged tools, a global verified business directory and 2,000+ aggregated x402 services, all paid per call in USDC via x402 (HTTP 402). No signup, no API key.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with: the original email string, a boolean `valid` flag, a boolean `hasMx` indicating DNS MX record presence, a boolean `disposable` flag for throwaway domains, a boolean `roleAccount` flag for addresses like info@ or noreply@, an integer `score` from 0-100 representing overall quality, plus response time in milliseconds and a `ok` status flag.
