Maxprog | eMail Verifier User Guide

2.- Getting started

Launch eMail Verifier. An untitled document is created. This document is made of two parts, the list on the top and a tab panel with 3 panes at the bottom. As with any application, It is fully resizable, it can be saved and opened back, it can be printed and transfered between Mac OS and Windows.

The documents also includes a toolbar with 8 buttons on the top. Those buttons make the access to the most used functions easier.

  Run Test: To start testing an individual address or a list.
  Stop: To stop current verifying process.
  Reset: To remove all results in order to re-test a list from scratch.
  Load List: To load a list. Same as 'Select...' button.
  Save Results: To save the verifying results to a file.
  Delete: To delete entries from the list.
  Find: To find an address in the list.
  Preferences: To set how testings have to be performed.

The tab panel at the bottom gives access to the overall results and statistics (picture above), the detailed SMTP server response and the DNS lookup details of each address in the list and the connection log. The second panel enables you to get more information about what happened during the DNS lookup and the SMTP connection. Just use the corresponding radio button to get the information displayed.

The third panel is the connection log. It allows you to see the exact communication between eMail Verifier and the server. Each line starts with the threaded connection number '[xx]', then the date and time followed by the command sent by eMail Verifier preceded with '>' or the server answer starting with a 3-digits response code. You don't actually need to understand the connection log to use the software. It is just here in case you care about it.

The document lets you select between two testing options, Single email and Email list file. Use the radio button to select the right option depending on your needs. Once you a re ready to verify your addresses, press the Run Test button.
