Yes—before sending, you should validate the email address.

A practical approach is:

  1. Basic format check

    • Must contain one @
    • Must have a domain part after @
    • No spaces
    • Example regex (simple, not perfect):
      /^[^\s@]+@[^\s@]+\.[^\s@]+$/
      
  2. Trim whitespace

    • Remove leading/trailing spaces before validating.
  3. Optional domain checks

    • Verify the domain has valid DNS/MX records if you need stronger validation.
  4. Still handle send-time failures

    • Even a “valid” email can bounce, so catch API/mail server errors.

If you want, I can give you:

  • a JavaScript validation function,
  • a Python one,
  • or a more robust validation pattern.

How can brands improve their AEO?

Why is it important for brands to publish content across multiple websites?

Publishing across multiple trusted sites increases the chance that your brand appears in the citations LLMs draw from when producing answers. Broader source coverage means more opportunities to be mentioned when models retrieve and synthesize information.
