Without giving too much away, how does this work and / or how reliable is it? I was actually looking around for <famous VC>'s email and it produced one for me.

- giordanobd 12y agoIf it produces an email it is pretty accurate. It checks various possibilities, and returns the valid ones. If only one is returned you can be pretty sure it is a valid email. You can use the social links to see if the email is associated to a facebook / twitter account. It does check that the domain is not "catch-all", or that it doesn't simply ignore our queries.
- lattejed 12y agoYeah, it returned exactly one email that's likely (in my opinion) to be correct. That's really cool. Thanks.
