Sendlane email verification options
If you’re using mailfloss for Sendlane email verification, you have five options at your disposal.
Before explaining the five options, make sure you have properly connected Sendlane 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 Sendlane account.
Here’s a screenshot of the five options you have with Sendlane 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, 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 Sendlane. This action is irreversible. You’ll see the contact in Sendlane as “Unsubscribed” to your lists.
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 Sendlane anymore.
The fourth option is a little more advanced, and intended for advanced users. It will update custom fields inside of Sendlane, which you can use to sync with your other databases and CRMs and use in automations. You can find this information in the contact details, and then scroll down to the "Personalization" section.
This action is also irreversible.

The final option is “do nothing”. This option sends you an email report of the latest floss session but doesn’t actually change anything inside of Sendlane 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 Sendlane account and nothing more.
