Why this matters

Manual checks vs mailfloss for Attentive.

Without a verification step, a bad address stays subscribed until a send bounces. Here is what changes when mailfloss checks new Attentive subscribers.

Task
Doing it yourself in Attentive
With mailfloss connected
When new subscribers get checked
Only after a send bounces or a complaint comes in.
As each new subscriber event arrives, through Instafloss.
Disposable and role addresses
Spotted by eye, if at all.
Flagged in each new subscriber’s verification result.
Typos like gmial.com
The subscriber never receives your emails.
Typo Fixer creates a subscription for the corrected address and unsubscribes the original. It needs an API sign-up unit.
What happens to a bad address
Find it and unsubscribe it yourself in Attentive.
Your choice: review first, unsubscribe the email address, or write verification attributes.
Subscriber profiles
Deleted by hand if you choose to.
Never deleted. Unsubscribe changes the email subscription only.
Your existing subscriber list
Stays as it is.
Not imported or rechecked. This connection checks new subscribers only.
What you get

Choose what happens after an email check

Instafloss checks each new Attentive email subscriber. You decide what happens next.

Instafloss

Checks new email subscribers as Attentive’s subscriber events arrive, so a bad address is caught at signup.

Typo Fixer

Creates a subscription for the corrected address, like gmail.com for gmial.com, then unsubscribes the original. It needs an Attentive API sign-up unit.

Review first

Review the verification results before deciding what to do with an address.

Unsubscribe an email address

Choose email unsubscribe as your cleanup action. This is an email-subscription action, not deletion of the subscriber profile.

Write verification attributes

Use the Update a field option to record verification information in Attentive custom attributes. Check the available options for your mailfloss plan before choosing this action.

Disposable and role checks

Each result flags disposable, role-based and undeliverable addresses, so you can see why an address needs attention.

I was able to quickly and easily install mailfloss. It allowed us to weed out lots of bad emails and protect our sender score. It’s one of the best martech purchases you’ll ever make. Highly recommend it.
