Understanding Accept-All Verification
Learn more about Accept-all domains and how to handle them.
Accept-All domains are configured to receive all emails sent to them, regardless of whether a specific mailbox exists. Emailable uses advanced multi-layered verification to provide the most granular results possible for these domains.
Possible Results
Emailable processes Accept-All domains using the following logic to ensure the highest data integrity:
- Full Verification: For certain domains, we can definitively determine if an address is Deliverable or Undeliverable. In these cases, the status is converted to a concrete result.
- Positive Certainty: When we can verify an address is Deliverable but cannot definitively prove a bounce, the result will be either Deliverable or Risky (Accept-All).
- Negative Certainty: When we can verify an address is Undeliverable but cannot confirm a successful delivery, the result will be either Undeliverable or Risky (Accept-All).
- Neutral Certainty: In cases where the domain's configuration prevents any definitive proof of delivery or rejection, the result will remain Risky (Accept-All).
Our classification of Accept-All addresses depends on the specific characteristics and security protocols of the target domain.
