Easy methods to Validate Email Addresses
- 1. how to validate email addresses Electronic mail, or most commonly known as email, is the standard for sharing of information across the Internet. The email address is what you type into the ‘Recipient' section of a composed email in order to send it to that specific person. Many companies hire groups of individuals to maintain their email lists for various information and updates about the company. With the quick growth rate of the Internet (about 2.2 billion email users around the world), it may be tough to find which email addresses have already been taken or are valid. This information is important to know if you are looking to market to potentially new customers or want to clean up a subscribed email list. Naturally, inspecting the validity of email addresses always demands an Internet connection. It would be impossible to monitor the email address changes and updates and keep them available offline. Consequently, you might find a number of websites used to find the availability of an email address. One such website is very simplistic in that it offers a box into which you may enter your email address. The website then searches for a registered email address by that name and returns whether the address is taken or not. The main drawback is that only one email address can be validated at a time. This makes for a long address list clean up an even longer task. Luckily, a program is available from www.hothotsoftware.com that allows for a huge search of valid email address. By going to the website and searching for ‘Check if an E-mail Address Exists' you can find a program to meet your specific purpose. After opening the software, you will find that it is written in a classic user interface so nearly anyone familiar with a computer can master the software. The software also works completely within a single window. This eliminates any possibility of getting lost within the program. The window of the program is divided into three primary areas. The left portion of the window has a box that can be filled with potential email addresses. These addresses can be anything that you wish to check the availability. The center section allows for input of any email addresses to exclude from the search. These are entered by simply including the email address up until the @ symbol. This is done because some companies will utilize like email addresses for similar purposes. For example, many companies have a registered email address of ‘[email protected]‘ for question purposes. By entering ‘contact@‘ into the center section of the program any emails beginning with ‘contact' will be excluded. The right part of the window shows the completed list of valid email addresses.
