Behavior

Loqate analyzes the structure and available signals for the mailbox and domain, then returns a normalized view and business route.

Limits and responsibilities

  • valid does not prove that the person actually controls the mailbox; use OTP verification when that proof is required.
  • A risky result must be interpreted according to your business tolerance.
