Description
EmailVal is Unified Software’s email validation & verification software. It’s an essential cloud-based solution that allows companies to instantly check the validity of email addresses entered by customers.
EmailVal is a web service. That means the email validation & verification software, the dynamic validation rules and reference data, are all located on the EmailVal servers.
This plugin enables you to interact with EmailVal through an easy to use form optimised for all screen sizes that you can place anywhere on your website via a shortcode. Visitors to your website can then use the form to input email addresses which will be automatically validated against EmailVal and stored in a database table of your choice for future reference.
Installation
- Upload
emailvaldirectory to thewp-content/plugins/directory - Activate plugin through the ‘Plugins’ page in WordPress
