Introduction
The Clever Email Validator plugin provides a simple yet powerful way to verify whether an email address actually exists. It uses DNS-based validation through MX (Mail Exchange) record checks—ensuring the domain can receive email, without relying on third-party APIs or external services.
This plugin works on both the frontend and backend, supports batch validation, improves data quality, and helps reduce fake or mistyped email submissions in your Bubble application.

Performs DNS/MX checks to verify if the provided email(s) are valid and deliverable.
Title | Description | Type |
Email | Provide the email you need to validate. For multiple emails, write them as text separated by commas. Do not include empty values. Each email should be wrapped in double quotes, e.g., "email1@gmail.com", "email2@yahoo.com". | Text |
Return Values:
Title | Description | Type |
Is Valid | Returns yes if all provided email(s) pass DNS and MX validation, otherwise no. This indicates whether the email(s) are likely deliverable. | Checkbox (yes/no) |
Not Valid Emails | Returns a list of email(s) that failed validation, including reasons such as invalid domain, MX record not found, or syntax errors. Useful for highlighting or removing invalid emails from your workflow. | Text |
