Downloading Your Results

You've verified your email list. Now it's time to download the results.

Valid Email Checker gives you complete control over your exports. Download everything at once, or filter by status to get exactly what you need. Choose your format—CSV, XLSX, JSON, or TXT—and you're good to go.

Let's walk through it.


Accessing the Verification Details Page

After your bulk verification completes:

  1. Go to Uploads & Results in the sidebar
  2. Find your completed verification
  3. Click View Results

You'll land on the Verification Details page:

The verification details page—your command center for results


Understanding Your Dashboard

The verification details page shows you everything at a glance.

Quick Stats

At the top, you'll see four key metrics:

StatWhat It Shows
Total EmailsHow many emails were in your upload
Success RatePercentage of emails that are safe to send
Bounce RatePercentage of emails likely to bounce
UploadedWhen you uploaded the list

These numbers tell you the health of your email list instantly. A high success rate (90%+) means your list is in great shape. Lower than that? You've got some cleaning to do.

Verification Results Breakdown

The donut chart gives you a visual breakdown of every email by status:

StatusWhat It Means
🟢 SafeValid, deliverable emails—send confidently
🟣 RoleTeam emails (info@, support@)—valid but lower engagement
🔵 Catch-AllServer accepts all—delivery uncertain
🟠 DisposableTemporary emails—remove these
🟡 Inbox FullMailbox is full—retry later
🔴 Spam TrapHoneypot addresses—never send
DisabledAccount deactivated—remove
🔴 InvalidDoesn't exist—will bounce
🟠 RiskyQuestionable—proceed with caution
UnknownCouldn't verify—credits refunded

The chart shows exact counts next to each status, so you know precisely what's in your list.


Exporting Your Results

On the right side of the page, you'll find the Export Results panel. This is where the magic happens.

Step 1: Select What to Download

Click the Select Type dropdown to choose which emails to export:

Export type dropdown showing filter options

Filter your export by status type

Available filters:

FilterWhat You Get
All EmailsEverything—complete results file
Valid EmailsOnly Safe emails (ready to send)
Invalid EmailsOnly bounced/non-existent addresses
Catch-All DomainsOnly catch-all server emails
Disposable EmailsOnly temporary/throwaway addresses
Role AccountsOnly team emails (info@, support@)
DisabledOnly deactivated accounts
Spam TrapsOnly honeypot addresses
Inbox FullOnly full mailboxes

Each filter shows the count in parentheses, so you know exactly how many emails you'll get.

Pro tip: Want just the good emails? Select Valid Emails to download only the addresses that are safe to send to. This is your cleaned, ready-to-use list.

Step 2: Choose Your Format

Pick your preferred file format:

FormatBest For
CSVUniversal—works everywhere (Excel, Google Sheets, most tools)
XLSXMicrosoft Excel—preserves formatting
JSONDevelopers—API integrations, custom processing
TXTSimple list—one email per line (emails only, no extra data)

Click the button for your format. It'll highlight to show it's selected.

Step 3: Download

Click Export All Emails (or whatever filter you selected) to download your file.

The file downloads immediately to your computer. Done!

Your Original Data Is Preserved

If your uploaded file had additional columns (names, company, notes), they're preserved in your export. We append our verification columns to the end—we never delete or rearrange your data.

Example:

Your uploaded file:

email,first_name,company
john@acme.com,John,Acme Inc

Your downloaded results:

email,first_name,company,Status,Score,Domain,Safe to Send,...
john@acme.com,John,Acme Inc,safe,98,acme.com,Yes,...

Downloading Unprocessed Emails

Remember the "Completed with Warning" status we talked about? If some emails couldn't be verified, you'll see a special option on this page.

Look below the export button:

Download Unprocessed Emails

This button appears when some email servers were unreachable during verification. Click it to download a separate file containing only the emails we couldn't verify.

You'll also see a message like:

⚠️ 500 emails could not be processed. You have been refunded 500 credits.

What to do with unprocessed emails:

  1. Download the unprocessed list
  2. Wait a day or two (gives servers time to come back online)
  3. Upload the list again for another verification attempt
  4. Most will verify successfully on the second try

You've already been refunded for these, so re-verifying costs you nothing extra.


TXT Format: Just the Emails

When you select TXT format, you get a simple text file with one email per line—no headers, no extra columns, just email addresses.

Example TXT export:

john@example.com
sarah@company.org
mike@business.net

This is useful when you just need a clean list to paste somewhere or import into a tool that only accepts plain text.

Note: TXT exports only include email addresses. If you need the verification details (status, score, etc.), use CSV, XLSX, or JSON.


JSON Format: For Developers

If you're integrating with custom systems or processing data programmatically, JSON format gives you structured data:

[
{
"email": "john@example.com",
"status": "safe",
"score": 98,
"domain": "example.com",
"safe_to_send": true,
"deliverable": true,
"free_email": false,
"disposable": false,
"catch_all": false,
"role_account": false,
"spam_trap": false,
"inbox_full": false,
"disabled": false,
"mx_found": true,
"verified_at": "2024-01-01T11:33:00Z"
}
]

Perfect for feeding into your CRM, custom scripts, or data pipelines.


Download Tips

Download Promptly

Your results are stored for 15 days after verification. After that, they're automatically deleted.

Don't wait too long! Download your results as soon as verification completes, especially for important lists.

Data Retention

Results are automatically deleted after 15 days. Make sure to download before then—we can't recover deleted data.

Use Filters Strategically

Instead of downloading everything and filtering in Excel, use our built-in filters:

  • Need only good emails? → Download "Valid Emails"
  • Want to see what's bad? → Download "Invalid Emails"
  • Checking for spam traps? → Download "Spam Traps"

This saves time and gives you exactly what you need.

Keep Your Original File

Your exported results include verification data, but it's still smart to keep a backup of your original upload. You never know when you might need the raw data.


Common Questions

Can I download multiple times?

Yes! Download as many times as you want, in any format, with any filter. Your results don't disappear after downloading.

Why is my file empty?

If you select a filter (like "Spam Traps") but there are 0 emails with that status, you'll get an empty file. Check the count in parentheses before downloading.

Can I download to Google Sheets directly?

Not directly, but you can:

  1. Download as CSV
  2. Open Google Sheets
  3. File → Import → Upload your CSV

It takes about 10 seconds.

What if I need the results after 15 days?

Download before the deadline! Once deleted, results cannot be recovered. If you miss the window, you'll need to re-upload and re-verify the list (which costs credits again).
