Installed and registered without problems on a Win 8.1 Pro 64 bit system.

I don't have any real use, but I was interested in security reasons. What does this software and to whom is sending the data?

In a stylish interface you can type a single eMail address or a longer batch. In my case I used a real existing eMail address of a company.

Dr. Email Address verifier invokes the MS C:\Windows\System32\nslookup.exe task to find out the ip address via DNS. That's okay and no security risk. Than the task C:\Users\xxxxxx\AppData\Roaming\Dr Email Verifier\Dr Email Verifier.exe tries to cantact directly the ip adress via smpt (1xx.xx.xxx.xx:25). The program does not try to contact other addresses and it should NOT! From the point of security : ok. But...

I received the answer :


---------------------------
Dr Email Verifier
---------------------------
Check Detail for 'nameX@companyY.com':

Result: BAD

Description: Indeed Nonexistent/Disabled/Unavailable/Discontinued

Suggestion: Discard

DrEV Said : Hello.

Server Answer: 250 xxx.companyY.com

DrEV Said : Sender.

Server Answer: 250 2.1.0 Ok

DrEV Said : Receiver.

Server Answer: 554 5.7.1 Service unavailable; Client host [xx.xxx.xx.xx] blocked using zen.dnsbl; http://www.spamhaus.org/query/bl?ip=xx.xxx.xx.xxx

DrEV Said : Bye.

In this case this existing and working good eMail address is "bad", because of a spam blocker. And this is the real use of such an eMail address verifier. To which address I can send my SPAM...

No need for me, but a safe and working application, uninstalled via reboot

I can´t Check Validity and Existence of my Emails , because of Windows 8.1 security center?

It says it is a potential harmful software.

How to overcome this problem?

$49, eh? Huh.

Whenever I discover my email addresses are bad, I receive a mailer-daemon from my SMTP email server and it's FREE.

Regardless of today's GOTD, it seems silly to spend $49 when mailer-daemons produce the same result and they are FREE.

Installed more out of curiosity than anything, no problems during this or in registering, opened to an almost childlike GUI, probably designed for windows 8 users.
Tested on a known discontinued e-mail address, it reported as such and then on one I was unsure of an reported that as valid.
So it does what it's supposed to do, but I should hope so that such an exorbitant price, a price I might add that is limited in the number that can be checked in batch mode.

It worked, its free today, and quite frankly I think the price is utterly ludicrous.
