eMail Verifier , as its name indicates, is a tool for checking single e-mail addresses or lists of e-mail addresses. E-mail validation speed with eMail Verifier may vary. Let's see how we can go faster. The software performs a series of checks to validate every e-mail address including, a syntax check, an e-mail address domain check and finally an e-mail address validity check with the server.

Well, you have the choice between processing each list separately and unsubscribe the recipient from each of them or use the MaxBulk Mailer Global Blacklist feature. In fact, the Global Blacklist prevents you from sending messages to given addresses whichever the list you have selected. In other words, you just need to add the address once to the blacklist to get it automatically blocked everywhere else! Furthermore, you can even block a whole domain or a name independently from its domain! As unsubscribed addresses, blacklisted recipients are automatically discarded by MaxBulk Mailer when sending messages. Blacklisting an email address is very simple. Let's see...

In addition if your Update Plan has expired you will see a 'Update Plan ? Renew...' menu. Most of the menus are quite self explanatory. You can purchase a license, register it and check the
