Re: How to ensure genuine emails despite valid email format?

a) - you can use a service like http://www.bulkemailchecker.com/ - there are a number of them that have an api you can verify the email address on form input.

b - d) you can use https://mxtoolbox.com/ api to find blacklisted IP's and domains.

Another option is to add a verification step - send the user a verification email for them to reply to.

There is a problem when a person enters valid email format but it is either

a) An invalid email which bounces

b) A valid email but using one of disposable email which means it is a fake profile

c) Emails from domains that are marked as spam

d) Emails from IP addresses that are marked as spam

How do we ensure that before we accept emails, both the above cases are put in pending status with appropriate message and reason code to put them in pending?
