An SMTP-Server can also reply with a message that is not telling us that an E-Mail is valid or not but tells the program that that server will probably never allow us to verify E-Mails. If thats the case and one of the entered masks is matching, it will no longer be used for verification and all emails belonging to that server will be tagged as Unsure.

Each E-Mail provider serves different SMTP-Servers where you can deliver your E-Mails and that we also use for the E-Mail verification. However some SMTP-servers might deliver a good result where others constantly will block your connection or even deliver false responses. In this area you can filter the SMTP-Servers out or specify a fixed SMTP-Server that should always be used for a certain E-Mail domain. | Each E-Mail provider serves different SMTP-Servers where you can deliver your E-Mails and that we also use for the E-Mail verification.

A //Full Simulate// is done when the E-Mail belongs to the listed providers. Normally the program stops the delivery of an E-Mail before it gets actually sent since we only want to check the E-Mail itself and not want to send any message. Some providers will only deliver a correct status when the program goes further and sends some more commands. This is done in the case of yahoo E-Mails. But don't worry even in this case no E-Mail is getting sent out as the program stops the delivery before the final step. | A //Full Simulate// is done when the E-Mail belongs to the listed providers.

+ | |||
+ | Sometimes it is required to use a proxy to get valid results for the verification. Especially if you only have a dynamic IP (IP address changes each time you get online). This dynamic IP is not seen as a valid resource to deliver E-Mails for major servers. If an E-Mail server sees that you have a dynamic IP, it might block access to itself or blacklist you sooner or later. To overcome this situation, you can use proxies. | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can think of a proxy as a middle man that actually delivers the messages you want to send. The proxy also sends back replies he gets from the E-Mail server. | ||
