Is the bounce test free?

Yes. New recipients are tested before a list's first send. The test uses no cleaning credits.

Why verify and clean an email list?

Invalid addresses bounce. Too many bounces can harm your sending domain and IP reputation. That can make later campaigns harder to deliver. The free test shows the risk; when needed, list cleaning finds and removes invalid addresses.

What happens if the estimated bounce rate is high?

If the list's bounce rate exceeds 5%, clean it before sending so the system can automatically separate invalid email addresses.

How do cleaning credits work?

Credits are used for new checks that return a chargeable result. Addresses with an existing result or a result the provider could not determine use no credits. Your balance is shown before cleaning starts.

Can I send to info@ addresses?

Yes. Valid shared addresses such as info@ are labelled and can receive campaigns. They are not blocked just because several people may use the inbox.

Does import fix misspelled domains such as gmial.com?

No. Import removes names, extra spaces and mailto prefixes, and rejects malformed rows. It never guesses or changes a domain's spelling.

Catch bad addresses before they bounce

Run a free bounce test before a list's first send. Malformed entries are filtered at import; high risk calls for list cleaning. Known invalid addresses stay out of your sends.

Checking whether your audience is ready to send

The list test is free and does not use cleaning credits.

Free test before the first send

Check a new list as you prepare its first campaign, and see the estimated bounce rate before you send.

Credits only for real cleaning

Addresses that already have a result are answered instantly, so cleaning credits go only to addresses that need a live check.

Invalid addresses stay out

Addresses found invalid go straight to your block list and are left out of every future campaign on their own.

How it works

Three steps to prepare your list for sending

Features

Everything that keeps bad addresses out

Disposable addresses and spam traps

Temporary inboxes and known spam traps are marked invalid and left out of your sends.

Catch-all domains

Domains that accept every address are marked risky. They are still sent to, but delivery is not guaranteed.

Role addresses

System addresses such as postmaster@ and noreply@ are stopped at import. Shared inboxes such as info@ are labelled.

Check one address

Check any contact from their profile. Addresses already known to MailGraf answer instantly without using a credit.

Cleaning history

Every cleaning run keeps its report: what was checked, what was found and how many credits it used.

Results in your reports

The Email verification tab in Reports shows checks, repairs and send-time blocks for any period.

A bounce estimate you can act on

The test looks only at recipients you have never emailed and who haven't confirmed through a form, so proven contacts aren't tested again. Each result comes with a clear next step: send, clean first, or leave the list out.

Free, with no cleaning credits used
Only new recipients are tested
Cleaning is required when the test confirms bounce risk above 5%

See the result and reason for each address

Every checked address gets one plain result: valid, risky, invalid or unknown. Invalid addresses are left out of your sends. Risky ones are still sent, because a domain that accepts every address may still belong to a real person.

The reason behind every result
Invalid addresses go to your block list
Unknown results can be checked again later

Protection at the moment of sending

New invalid addresses can slip in after a list is cleaned. When a campaign goes out, MailGraf leaves known invalid addresses out on its own, so they never bounce and never count against your bounce rate.

“The email delivery performance and the service truly surprised us. They cleaned our list before the first send, advised us on better subject lines, and optimized the visuals in our content. No one had told us these things before. It feels less like a SaaS tool and more like having an email expert on the team.”
