How To Make Sure The Email Is Real

By

Earlier, there was no way to verify the identity of the email sender. During the basic email protocols development, the cost of computing power and implementation was balanced with the risk of fraud. It was hard to imagine 84% of all emails would have a malicious load and be spammed in the future.

Reasons To Start Using Anti-Spam Service

Every user has ever received spammed email or seen spammed comments, as well as stumbled across annoying ads which always contain harmful content. Nowadays, you become able to find out whether one or another IP address is blacklisted using special email verification for existence on https://cleantalk.org/email-checker, which makes it possible for you to safeguard yourself online. It may be hard to detect whether a message is sent by a spambot or a real person, that’s exactly when spam IP checker becomes a catch for you. The benefits of such service are:

  • real-time open statistics for all received comments, so you can always be aware of everything happening on your site;

Millions of users want to safeguard themselves and their business online, so more and more of them try to avoid spam, and start using diverse Anti-spam programs.

Email Authentication

The vulnerability of an email without authentication and the widespread ways to get access to one or another email focuses IT community attention on the need to use mail authentication technologies. Implementing email authentication, you can be sure any user — an employee, client, or partner who receives an email — can determine whether an email has been sent by a legitimate company representative. Moreover, you can have control over who sends an email on your behalf.

The importance of this has increased dramatically due to the rapid growth of cloud services, lots of which send emails on behalf of their clients on sales, marketing, customer support, HR, accounting, legal and other services. Thanks to forced authentication, you can block anyone who is trying to send an email on your behalf — spammers, phishers, etc.

Email authentication gives the domain owner global control over what happens to messages sent on their behalf by anyone and to anyone. How to check the addressee? If a cryptographic DKIM signature is attached to the message, you can decrypt the headers of the incoming messages and find out whether the message really comes from the sender.

But it’s much easier and more efficient to use such specialized email scanning services as CleanTalk connecting to the mail server and checking whether the email exists or not. Each CleanTalk Anti-Spam plugin supports real-time email checking.
