- can you run the BTL and Allergan emails through a list and export and show which ones succeded and which ones failed so we can finish combing the list. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TsiX7q-2cI6-V-BNcx3UFcb5YvonUdeJSQK15yZc0H4/edit?usp=sharing

Almost of all the personal emails in both new BTL and Allergan list got 100% verified but almost all of the work emails got only partially verified with a tag "accept all" in the hunter.io.
The ones that i have colored in orange are partially verified and the ones I have marked with green are 100% verified.
For eg. In the below screenshot the ones you see in green and 100% verified and the one you see in orange is partially verified.
The "pablovillegas@apphealthgroup.com" that you asked about during the meeting was also only partially verified with the tag "accept all" and that's why you don't see it in the list of 100% verified emails.
Below is the from the conversation I had with the hunter.io support team regarding the "accept all" tagged emails.
When an email address is tagged "accept all" in the verification report, it means that we couldn't perform all the necessary verification checks on the email.
This is because Accept all domains are set up to accept all emails and, due to that, we cannot verify if an email associated with them exists or not.
For example, the domain “eight25media.com” is one of these types of domains. So, if we check anything@eight25media.com we will always receive an “OK” response for any mailbox. This is why we cannot be sure the emails associated with them are valid.
The server will accept all emails we check with them, but if you send out an email, there is still a chance that it could bounce.
Whether you want to include such emails in your list ultimately depends on the percentage of bounces that you are willing to have.
My colleague Irina wrote a blog article that answers this question in much detail: https://hunter.io/blog/how-to-verify-email-address/#how-can-i-be-sure-an-email-is-deliverable
I would suggest reading the whole blog post or at least the section about "Accept all" emails. She details 5 points to take into account when making this decision.
And to maximize your results for accept-all emails, I suggest filtering emails with a 93/4% confidence score and gradually decreasing it based on the bounce rate.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this for me.
