Questions tagged [email-verification]

Email verification is the process determining whether a particular email-address can actually receive mail and (usually) that a particular person has access to it (e.g. during an account signup process). This is distinct from email validation, which is concerned simply with determining whether a given string is a valid email address (leaving aside the problem of whether it exists, or who owns it).
