详情介绍:
Mail7 Email Validation checks email addresses in real time as they are entered, using the Mail7 API. It stops fake and undeliverable addresses from getting into your user base, comments and form submissions - which means fewer bounces, less spam and cleaner lists.
Three verdicts, not two. Real mail servers do not always give a straight answer: catch-all domains, greylisting and disposable providers make some addresses genuinely unverifiable. Mail7 returns Valid, Not Valid, or Unknown, and this plugin does not block Unknown addresses by default, so you never turn away a real person over an address that simply could not be confirmed.
What it checks
- Syntax / format
- Domain MX records (can the domain receive mail at all)
- Live SMTP mailbox check
- Disposable / temporary address detection
- WordPress user registration
- Comment author emails
- Contact Form 7 email fields
- WPForms email fields
- Results are cached, so the same address is never re-checked (fast, and no wasted API calls).
- If the Mail7 API is briefly unreachable, the plugin fails open - your forms keep working, no one is ever locked out by an outage.
安装:
- Upload the plugin to
/wp-content/plugins/, or install it from the Plugins screen. - Activate it.
- Go to Settings -> Mail7 Validation to choose where validation runs and, optionally, add your API key.

常见问题:
Do I need a paid account?
No. It works on the free anonymous tier. A Mail7 API key raises the rate limit and volume.
Will it block real users?
Not for unverifiable addresses. By default only addresses Mail7 reports as Not Valid (do not exist / no mail server) are blocked. "Unknown" addresses are allowed. You can optionally block Unknown too, but it is off by default on purpose.
What happens if Mail7 is down?
The plugin fails open: submissions are allowed. Validation never becomes a single point of failure for your forms.
