I was checking about that today, to see if it was actually something I would be interested in working on. I found that service doing something similar: http://docs.kickbox.io/ http://docs.kickbox.io/ Is that what you meant? EDIT: ok, you don't want any backend so webhooks won't work.

Well, aside from webhooks or anything, Kickbox and its competitors seem to focus on checking if an email address exists based on DNS and SMTP pings. This is valuable, but I want to be able to know for sure that 1. the email is "real" and 2. the person using the email address actually has access to it and can receive emails on it. Thus the process of actually sending an email to the provided address and making them click a link. I've still not seen anything that provides this functionality.

  Just seeing your reply now, sorry, not used to get answers on HN :D Yes, I see what you mean. Maybe I should give it a shot. :)
