Privacy: The address you check is processed entirely in your browser. It is never sent to a server, logged, or stored.

## About

A bad email is a quiet form of lost contact — a typo at sign-up, a throwaway address that bounces a year later, or a role address that no one reads. This validator checks the structural format, surfaces common typos against real providers, flags disposable / throwaway services, and warns when an address is generic (admin@, support@) rather than personal.

Everything runs in your browser. The address is never sent to a server, never logged, and never stored. For a deliverability check (does the domain actually accept mail?), pair this with the DNS Lookup tool and ask for MX records.

## How to use

1. **Paste an email address** — Any address you want to check — a sign-up form input, a contact sheet row, or a pasted list.
2. **Read the verdict** — Valid, Risky, or Invalid — plus a short list of every issue found.
3. **Accept the suggestion** — If a typo was detected, copy the corrected address with one click.

## Examples

### A common typo

A one-letter domain typo (gmial instead of gmail).

Input:

```
jane@gmial.com
```

Output:

```
Risky · Possible typo: did you mean jane@gmail.com?
```

### A disposable address

A throwaway email service that should not be used for important signups.

Input:

```
foo@mailinator.com
```

Output:

```
Risky · Domain is a known disposable / throwaway email service.
```

### A role address

A team address that no specific person reads.

Input:

```
support@example.com
```

Output:

```
Risky · "support" is a role address — it goes to a team, not a person.
```

## FAQ

### Does this tool send my email to a server?

No. The check is fully offline: format, length, typo detection, disposable / role / free-provider flags. Your email never leaves the browser.

### Can this verify that an email actually delivers?

No — that requires contacting the mail server, which is a network operation. For a delivery check, use DNS Lookup against the domain and look for MX records. A domain with no MX records will not receive email.

### Why are role addresses flagged?

Addresses like admin@, support@, and info@ go to a shared inbox, not a specific person. They are fine for general contact forms, but not ideal for one-to-one communication or account-bound logins.

### What is a disposable email?

A throwaway service that gives you an address valid for minutes to days. Useful for dodging spam, but a strong signal that the address will not be reachable later. Most platforms block them at signup.

### Does this validator check the domain has MX records?

No — MX lookups require network calls and would need to send your email to a DNS server. This tool is fully offline. If you want to confirm a domain can receive mail, use DNS Lookup and ask for the MX record type.
