    Yahoo initially returns 250 for all recipients and won't return if the email ID is actually invalid until you complete all steps for sending a message.

    You can test this by using like a 50 character email ID that's just jibberish you know will be invalid and won't get sent the message.

      Diablo hit the nail on the head. There is no really good way to effectively verify yahoo emails without sending them an email.
      Some of the verification services do have methods they use, but I imagine they are actually sending an email to verify its existance.

    I have a program that can verify yahoo emails.

    However, it can't identify an address that has recently become permanently invalid.

    So a small percentage of false positive could exist.

    It will catch fake addresses and any invalid older than a couple months.
