About email format checking

Format checking is the fast, first-pass filter for a list of addresses: it confirms each one looks like a valid email — a local part, an @, and a domain with a real TLD — without contacting any mail server. It instantly catches stray text, missing @ symbols and domains with no dot.

Because it does no DNS or mailbox lookup, it is quick and private, but it only proves the format is right, not that the address exists. Use it to strip out obvious junk, then run the survivors through the Bulk Email Verifier for live MX and risk checks.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Got Questions? We Have Answers.

What does the format checker do?

It takes a pasted list and splits it into valid-format and invalid-format addresses based on syntax alone, so you can quickly strip out malformed entries.

How is this different from the syntax checker?

The syntax checker gives a rule-by-rule breakdown of one address; the format checker validates a whole list at once and separates the good from the bad for bulk cleaning.

Does it check MX records or mailboxes?

No. It validates format only, with no DNS lookup, so it is instant and private. Run the survivors through the Bulk Email Verifier for live checks.

What input formats are accepted?

Line-separated, comma-separated or semicolon-separated lists all work. Each token is checked independently.

Can I copy the results?

Yes. Copy the valid or invalid group separately with one click.

Is my list uploaded?

No. Everything is processed in your browser and nothing leaves your device.
