I often build custom waterfalls where I edits the conditions manually, but here in the standard waterfall I can’t reconcile the result with the setting. Thx for looking into it 🙂

Hey Andreas W. Can you share a couple of screenshots so I can help you if possible?

Hi Andreas, thanks for reaching out. It looks like zerobounce is flagging this email as valid: https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/w28k1kwz/1235579934/0dc0b825b1b24972b01363e3e150/CleanShot+2024-10-31+at+13_31_04%402x.png?expires=1730397600&signature=7a432d7bbc81e7d7140dc07f2e760eb7c8dac7906222d9f45aafaf070a13dc21&req=dSIkE8x5lIhcXfMW1HO4zVp4dxbCjffDkPwOvZp74oWFS2zkBzru%2BXo675Hy%0AAImV%0A How are you inferring that this is a catch-all email? This may be Zerobounce mistake that we can flag here.

Hey Bruno - afk but I remember that lead magic marked as valid_catch_all. So if Zwrobounce only says valid, I still don’t consider it safe to send. The idea here is that the client wants to send very conservatively. Makes sense?

Understood, I see your point Andreas! I’d still likely trust ZeroBounce’s authority over LeadMagic in this case, as ZeroBounce tends to provide the most reliable email validation data. You could take each provider's validation info and connect it to a lightweight GPT-4o-mini prompt that evaluates the validation results. Then, combine that with the ZeroBounce data to decide whether to send an email to the account. Does that make sense?

ah, ok that makes sense I didn’t consider that different providers have different data on catch_all. 🫶 the idea to score the validation results. Thanks that’s awesome

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback Andreas W.!
