Currently, we are using some 3rd parties to cleanse our emailings regulary to make sure we have only valid & accepted emails in our database. Anyhow, this process is sub-optimal and don't perfect. Are you aware of any marketo plug-in which can validate email IDs...before we send programs out? Thanks. Wolfgang

Hi Wolfgang,

You would need an enrichment tool to update the data.

We use Informatica.  Super easy to integrate into Marketo.

Hi Dan,

Do you use StrikeIron on the form for 'real-time validation' or after the fact?

Hi Eric - after the fact, before we send out an email.  Actually, we run regularly scheduled batches and then suppress those that return specific validation codes:

Hi Wolfgang,

We use something called BriteVerify. What I like about them is that they're cost efficient and they're integrated into Marketo. You can verify your list before you send, and then only send to the emails that pass. It also offers you some level of protection from spam traps in addition to lowering you bounce rate.
