Bulk Email Verification: A Step-by-Step Guide

Performing Email Verification

1.  Navigate to the smart lists area within your sub account.
2. Select the contacts you wish to verify.

3. Click on the “Email Verification” bulk action button.

4. Assign a name to your verification batch (e.g., “Test 1”) and proceed by clicking “Confirm”.

Understanding the Process

• Primary Email Addresses: Only primary email addresses can be verified.
• Patience is Key: Bulk actions, especially those involving large datasets, take time to complete.

Reviewing Verification Results

After initiating the verification, you can monitor and review the results:

1. Navigate to the “Bulk Actions” section to view your verification batches.
2. Check the status, which could be “Complete”, “Pending”, or “In Progress”.

3. View detailed statistics, including the number of valid, invalid, and errored emails.

4. Access individual contact records directly from the verification results for further action.

Key Considerations and Troubleshooting

• Email System Requirement: Verification requires connection to the LC email system. It’s not compatible with Mailgun, Google SMTP, or SendGrid.
• Associated Costs: There’s a minimal cost per email verified. Contact your CRM Administrator for a breakdown of the cost.
