ActiveCampaign email verification options using mailfloss
If you’re using mailfloss for ActiveCampaign email verification, you have five Action options at your disposal.
Before explaining the five options, make sure you have properly connected ActiveCampaign to mailfloss. You only need to do this once and from then on mailfloss will be able to automatically perform email verifications for the connected ActiveCampaign account.
Here’s a screenshot of the five options you have with ActiveCampaign email validation:
The first option “Manually decide action on invalid emails” will display emails deemed invalid so you can decide an action on them, like so:
With manual mode set, you can later decide to delete, unsubscribe, ignore, or report the status as incorrect for all contacts mailfloss determined as invalid.
The second option “Unsubscribe bad emails” will unsubscribe the contact from ActiveCampaign. This action is irreversible. You’ll see the contact in ActiveCampaign with the “Unsubscribed” status.
The third option “Delete bad emails” is also irreversible. Once deleted, the contact is gone for good and you won’t find it inside of ActiveCampaign anymore.
The fourth option is a little more advanced and intended for advanced users. It will update custom fields inside of ActiveCampaign, which you can use to sync with your other databases and CRMs and use in automations.

The final option is “do nothing”. Basically, all this option does is send you an email report of the latest floss session, but doesn’t actually change anything inside of ActiveCampaign or mailfloss. This is most like boring, traditional email validation services, but is useful if you just want a report of the email verification statuses determined by mailfloss for the connected ActiveCampaign account and nothing more.
