I use this tool when I need to acquire a domain but from a drop and not by contacting the end-user. This gives me an edge and peace to know whether the email is valid or not. In case, the email ID is invalid, I can assure myself that there are more chances of getting this domain drop and I can work accordingly. There are several benefits of having the email address invalid. One of the top is the domain will most likely be dropped. Secondly, no other potential buyer would be able to contact him through email because it would bounce back. I know there are several other ways to get in touch with the current owner of the domain but many don’t do.
Although I have seen many domains getting renewed even their email addresses are invalid. Not sure how they are able to track their domains when their email ID is not working. Some don’t even bother to change the ID even after logging to their account and renewing the domains.
I have checked thousands of email addresses through this tool and is really great. Only on few occasion it gives the wrong answer. You can determine that by checking that email ID twice or thrice and see what the result is.
This tool is also helpful when you are confused whether to contact the current owner of the domain just to know if the email address is valid or not. Sometimes you just want to see if the ID is working one. I personally feel good to know the ID is invalid so there will be more chances to get the domain dropped and most of the potential buyer would not be able to contact when the email will bounce back to them.
There are some negative aspects with having invalid ID as well. One is that I cannot get in touch through email and make this deal privately before the domain drops. The other is domain will go into auction where I will have to fight with many bidders and end up paying lot more than I would have paid dealing privately.
Do you find this tool helpful? Would you like to share anything similar?

You may use the paid tools like DomainTools.com and DomainIQ.com for paid reverse WHOIS service. I haven’t any of those paid services above but reverse WHOIS is a useful tool to obtain the email address of the domain owner.
Thank you very much for this information..i also have another question. you said you havent use this tools before but in ur blogs it says you acquire most of ur names through droppimg domain by backordering, Auctions or privately…the private part how do you know the email address of a particular domain you want to purchase privately for example if you see a domain on the pending delete that might be valuable but you know there may be high demand for it and instead of the name going to auction you decided to contact the current owner by checking whois… Read more »
You may use “reverse WHOIS” service. There are paid and free tools. I use Whoxy.com (free) to find out the email addresses.
If interested in the paid ones, you may check it out DomainTools.com and DomainIQ.com. I haven’t used their paid service yet so I can’t give my own feedback about them.
Thank you!
Hi Abdul Thank you for this tips though the blog post was written longtime ago, dont know if the tool you shared still working or not until i try it, secondly my question is that when you said the word “DROP” do you mean domain that is about to drop that is on “pending delete” or domain that has expired but its on auction like godaddy Auction which the owner can still renew? reason why im asking about this is that i read a blog post on namepros which talked about stage by stage on how domain expired and get… Read more »
Hello Olayiwola,
Thanks for your comment.
I haven’t used that tool for a long time now so I cannot claim if it’s working fine or not.
What I meant from the “drop” is a domain which goes through an expiry process, RGP (redemption grace period) and then into Pending Delete status after which it drops for anyone to register.
