Sorry to hear that — email verification tools can be frustrating, especially when they mark too many valid addresses as risky or don’t improve deliverability enough.
If you want, I can help you find a better alternative for list cleaning based on what matters most:
- Accuracy: fewer false positives
- Deliverability impact: reduce bounces without over-pruning
- Speed / scale: large lists or API use
- Compliance: GDPR/CCPA, data handling
- Cost: cheaper per verification
- Workflow: bulk upload, real-time API, CRM integration
Common alternatives people compare with Mailgun verification:
- ZeroBounce
- NeverBounce
- Kickbox
- BriteVerify
- DeBounce
- Hunter Email Verifier
- Emailable
If you tell me:
- your list size,
- whether you need bulk or API, and
- what specifically you dislike about Mailgun,
I can recommend the best fit and even suggest a safe cleaning process so you don’t accidentally remove good contacts.
