when i run the find work email enrichment, it finds and validates the email. I am running them in instantly later, but they keep bouncing. do i need to run another instantly verification on the emails on top of this enrichment?
Yes, you might need to run an additional verification. Clay's email waterfall includes validation (using ZeroBounce by default), but by default it treats catch-all emails as valid. If you're experiencing bounces, try: 1. Toggle on "Only mark 'Safe to Send' emails as valid" in your email waterfall settings to exclude catch-all emails 2. Run Instantly's Verify Email action as an additional verification step Regular email list cleaning is recommended to maintain good deliverability and sender reputation.
Hey — do you have an example of an email that bounced? Also, are you enabling Safe to Send in the work email waterfall? If not, that might affect deliverability. It would also help to know the exact error code you’re seeing with the bounce. Let me know!
