MANY TYPES
OF BAD ADDRESSES
The Cost of Poor Email Database Hygiene
Email addresses that are undeliverable are worthless
Bad email addresses hurt your bottom line!

• Good addresses can go bad.

Email hygiene impact
in your migration
success
SafeToSend® Example
SafeToSend® Example Continued
Verify each address in
real time to confirm that
it’s valid and can accept
mail.
Our patented spell-check
technology corrects as
many as seven errors in a
single address and fixes
any typos in your file.
We check each email
address to identify and
flag spamtraps and other
damaging email
addresses.
How It Works: SafeToSend®
• Syntax Checks
• RFC (822, 2822, 5322, 3696, 5233, 6530)
• FreshAddress standards
• General Domain Checks
• TLD
• LLD
• Real-Time MX record
• ISP Specific Rules
• ex-Gmail: no underscores in handle
• Account Level Validation (ALV)
• Vast database of recent email deliverability findings from
internal and partner ESP messaging
• Real-Time SMTP check
How It Works: Check
First, we determine if the email address is valid and accepting email.
How It Works: Check Examples
Email Addresses Problem
Sntower2groupon.com Syntax: key-stroke error
ldross@sbcglobal,net Syntax: key-stroke error
Dyuengling@comcast..com Syntax: extra characters
“[nickh@gmail.com1]” Multiple syntax errors
“CF_Smythe2hotmale.com”]] Multiple syntax errors
GeorgeQ@idglist.cmo Transposition in top-level domain
nuziad42@llbaen.com Transposition in lower-level domain
zephirin@zapos.com Missing character in lower-level domain
Pat_rick@gmail.com ISP-specific rule: Gmail doesn’t allow underscores
nick@xyxyxyxy.com Failed MX check: Domain cannot send/receive
email
CSHIBEL1@yahoo.com Failed ALV: bouncing/undeliverable address
How It Works: Correct
We fix typos and other errors with our patented "spell-check" technology.
• Effective on any misspelled domain
• Corrects up to seven errors per address
• Syntax
• Missing or duplicated @-signs and periods
• Accidental spaces, quotes, and other incorrect characters
• Typos
• Duplicate, missing or transposed characters
• Misspellings
• Keystroke Errors
• Misheard email domain (gbc vs. gbsee)
• Misunderstood handwriting (1 vs. l)
How It Works: Correct Examples
Category Original Corrected
Syntax sntower2groupon.com sntower@groupon.com
Formatting erinbr@ibmdotcom erinbr@ibm.com
Spelling doenespinoza@zapos.com doenespinoza@zappos.com
Transposition s.cruz@earhtlink.net s.cruz@earthlink.net
Missing Characters zephirin@hrvardpilgrm.org zephirin@harvardpilgrim.com
Extra Characters shannonk@amazzon.com shannonk@amazon.com
How It Works: Protect
We protect your database and your reputation by filtering out
damaging addresses.
• Deliverable, but toxic...
• Spamtraps and honeypots
• Deliverable, by undesirable...
• Frequent spam complainers
• Disposable domains
• Fictitious & malicious emails
• FCC wireless domains
• Customer specific suppressions
• Deliverable, but suspect...
• Automated or bot-generated
• Deliverable, but not best practice...
• Role accounts
How It Works: Protect Examples
Email Address Issue
paul@mediaone.net Spamtrap address
info@bankofamerica.com Role Account
newsletter@ortixdesign.com Role Account
gus@mailinator.com Disposable address
van.breuggeman@gmail.com DMA “Do Not Email List”
no@nothanks.com Fictitious handle and domain
billg@microsoft.com Fictitious email
abc@hotmail.com Fictitious handle
abuse@hotmail.com Malicious entry
spam@comcast.net Malicious entry
3102540940@tmomail.net FCC wireless domain
How to Solve Hygiene Problems Permanently
• First Step: Clean your house file.
• Second Step: Automatically scan all new emails in real time so
new data doesn’t compromise your clean file.
• Third Step: Scan your file throughout the year to guard against
data that goes bad over time.
• Net Result: 360-degree protection, all the time, in real time to
keep you safe from hygiene related deliverability issues.
Email Hygiene ROI
• Why Email Hygiene? FreshAddress hygiene provides a
return on your investment in a multitude of ways:
• Suggested corrections add customer email addresses to your file
that would otherwise be lost.
• Spamtrap detection positions your company to avoid associated
blocking and blacklisting that can derail your email marketing
program.
• Better inbox placement means more of the opens, clicks, and
revenues that your company needs to succeed.
• Higher customer satisfaction levels, lower call center costs, stop
wasting money sending email to dead and dangerous email
address, reduce data breach risk.
