CampaignKit

Email Validation for FluentCRM

Marco R. -

Use CampaignKit's WordPress plugin to validate and tag your new contacts with invalid email addresses in FluentCRM.

The plugin uses CampaignKit's Email Validation API to perform the following validations:

  • Domain checks - is the email domain available and accepts email traffic
  • Mailbox deliverability checks - does the target domain accepts emails for the given mailbox
  • Catch-all email address detection
  • Disposable email address detection

This works for all contacts that you add manually or import using the import function.
