Infusionsoft email verification options using mailfloss
If you're using mailfloss for Infusionsoft email verification, you have five options at your disposal. Before explaining the four options, make sure you have properly connected Infusionsoft 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 Infusionsoft account.
Here's a screenshot of the five options you have with Infusionsoft email validation:
The first option "Manually decide action on bad 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 Infusionsoft. This action is irreversible. You'll see the contact in Infusionsoft as "Status: Opt-Out: Admin".
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 Infusionsoft anymore.
The fourth option is a little more advanced and intended for advanced users. It will update custom fields inside of Infusionsoft, which you can use to sync with your other databases and CRMs and use in automations. This action is also irreversible.
For finding this information, go to "Contact information" and click on the "Custom Fields" tab.

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 Infusionsoft 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 Infusionsoft account and nothing more.
