Email Validation vs mailboxlayer
Email Validation
AbstractAPI's email verification endpoint checks format, deliverability, and quality signals such as disposable, free, and role-based addresses, returning an autocorrect suggestion and quality score per lookup. A free monthly quota is available before metered paid plans apply.
mailboxlayer
A REST service from APILayer that checks whether an email address is syntactically valid, resolves to real DNS/MX records, and flags free or disposable providers in one call. Free for light personal use, with paid tiers for higher volume.
