In this configuration, you can set to check for users' email address reliability before they register or subscribes.

Which users should be tested?

In the first part, you can select which registration process you want to protect. In this example, AcyChecker will verify users before they can create a new account on the website or subscribe to an AcyMailing list.

On which criteria should we prevent the users from registering/subscribing?

In the second part, you can select which types of email addresses are not accepted:

  • Is a disposable email address: A disposable email address is temporary, it's convenient for people who don't want to give their real email address on any website. For your email marketing it isn't great because you send emails to non-existing users.

  • Is an accept all email address: This means that all email addresses on that domain will work, you'll be able to send emails to them but there are potentially no one receiving them.

  • Is registered through a free domain: This means that the email address creation was free, like Gmail or Yahoo for example. There are no cons on your side if you want to send marketing emails to them.

  • Is a role based email address: Role-based email addresses are ones that do not belong to a specific user, but more to a role. For example, support@example.com is a role-based email address.

  • Is registered through a non-existent domain: This means that the domain doesn't exist and therefore the email address doesn't exist either. It isn't recommended to send emails to email addresses that don't exist because it impacts your IP reputation and you can be considered more easily as a spammer.

  • Does not exist on the SMTP server of the domain: This means that we asked via SMTP protocol if we can send an email to this email address, and it responded that the address doesn't exist. Like the non-existing domains, it is bad for your IP reputation to send emails to a non-existing receiver.
