Validating newly harvested email addresses

When Atomic Email Hunter extracts e-mail addresses, it also harvests the ones that are no longer valid, outdated or fake. The mail server may also be temporary inaccessible, mailbox full or deleted from a server.

Right after you gathered e-mail addresses and to keep the list fresh (containing active e-mails only) we recommend you check e-mails for validity periodically. Special software called email verifiers do just that. When selecting among these tools, take a note of how the program checks e-mails for validity. For example, some programs check for the mail server validity only, which is not enough, since the server may exist, while the e-mail account does not (like I_just_made_it_up@yahoo.com).

Take a close look at Atomic Mail Verifier, one of the best email verifiers currently available. You can get a free trial version from the developer's official web page http://www.amailsender.com/amv. The program can be integrated with all of our e-mail harvesters and gives you an option to choose one of three e-mail verification methods.
