Re:Ask HN: What is the norm for email validation? by taylorcooney on Wednesday June 14, 2017 @05:28PM (#14556263)
We do...but then people wait for a verification email that will never arrive (.con vs .com). Ideally, we want to fix this before they register their account. Looking for server-side (rails), service calls and client-side options.

I know Mandrill has webhooks that can notify you of events such as bounced emails.

Wouldn't integrating this help solve the issue, as you can possibly check if you received a bounce for that email shortly after the user attempts to register, and then notify them on the screen?
