I’m building a full-featured, self-hosted email validation service that mirrors the speed and user experience of BounceCheck.net. Above all, I need exceptionally accurate real-time SMTP mailbox verification: results must be returned quickly, with clear Valid / Invalid / Risky / Unknown labels and granular diagnostics for each address. Core functions to replicate • Single email lookup from the dashboard • Bulk processing that accepts both CSV and TXT uploads without size limits typical of 30 k+ rows • MX, DNS, catch-all and disposable detection running in the same pass • Deliverability and risk scoring calculated from the combined checks Platform expectations – A responsive user dashboard that shows credit usage, job history, downloadable reports and the per-email drill-down. – REST API offering the same checks, protected by API keys with configurable daily / monthly limits. – Admin area to create or revoke keys, view system metrics and queue performance, and adjust plan thresholds. – Processing engine must be multithreaded or event-driven so a medium VPS can handle thousands of verifications per minute. Deliverables 1. Source code for web app and worker services (language and framework of your choice, but list the stack you’ll use). 2. Database schema and migration scripts. 3. Docker or equivalent deployment scripts so I can spin it up on a fresh server. 4. API documentation (Swagger / OpenAPI preferred) plus a quick-start example in cURL. 5. Final test run validating at least 10 k mixed addresses, with a summary showing match rates against [login to view URL] for reference. I’ll provide root SSH access to a staging server and any SMTP probing IPs that need allow-listing. Please outline your proposed tech stack, timeline and any experience you have with email hygiene tools or SMTP-level programming.

Building a real-time, accurate email validation platform with clear labels and detailed diagnostics is a challenging but solvable problem. I’ve worked on email verification tools focused on SMTP checks, MX and catch-all detection, and bulk processing beyond 30k+ rows, so I understand what it takes to maintain speed and accuracy at scale. For the stack, I suggest Node.js with Fastify for the API to keep requests light and event-driven, plus a RabbitMQ-based worker queue to handle multithreaded verification on a mid-tier VPS. PostgreSQL with JSONB will handle flexible report data and configuration. Docker Compose can simplify deployment. For frontend, React will offer a responsive dashboard, and Swagger will document the REST API with example cURL usage. A couple of questions: - Will you provide your own SMTP probing IPs to distribute lookups, or should I implement IP rotation? - Should the bulk processor support resumable uploads or chunking for very large files beyond RAM limits? I can deliver source code, migrations, deployment scripts, API docs, and a 10k+ test with comparison to BounceCheck.net. This will take about 4 weeks including testing. Ready to start building a solid platform that meets these specific requirements.

Hello there, We will build your self-hosted email validation platform: real-time SMTP mailbox verification, bulk CSV/TXT processing, REST API with key management, and a full admin dashboard. For the SMTP engine, we will use an async Python worker pool (asyncio with aiodns) to run MX lookups, catch-all detection, disposable checks, and mailbox probes in parallel. On a medium VPS, this architecture handles thousands of verifications per minute without blocking. Each result will carry a structured diagnostic payload (Valid, Invalid, Risky, Unknown) with sub-scores for deliverability and risk. A couple of quick things to confirm: 1) Do you need user registration with credit-based billing, or will this serve a single internal team? Looking forward to discussing further. Best regards, Faizan

I can build a self-hosted email validation platform using FastAPI/Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis and Next.js. It will handle syntax, DNS/MX, SMTP checks, disposable and catch-all detection, risk scoring and bulk CSV/TXT processing. I’ll also include REST APIs, admin dashboard, rate limiting, logging, Docker deployment, documentation and performance testing.

Hello, "SELF-HOSTED EMAIL VALIDATION PLATFORM" — you need fast, accurate real‑time SMTP verification with clear status labels. I’ll use Node.js with worker‑threads (or BullMQ) to run MX, DNS, catch‑all and disposable checks in parallel, storing results in PostgreSQL and exposing a Swagger‑documented REST API. I’ve built a similar bulk‑data validation and delivery pipeline for verified leads: https://www.freelancer.com/projects/data-collection/Polish-Dental-Clinics-Business-Leads/reviews. To avoid false positives, I’ll integrate DNSBL lookups and rate‑limit SMTP probes per IP, ensuring the service stays reliable on a medium VPS. Do you have any specific rate‑limit or quota rules you’d like the API keys to enforce? Looking forward to working with you. Artur Giżycki
