Email domain typos / yhoo.com

Is yhoo.com a typo for yahoo.com?

Yes. yhoo.com is yahoo.com with a letter missing. ContactLint treats it as a typo: the API sets did_you_mean to the same name at yahoo.com and returns verdict invalid, because the domain cannot receive mail.

Can yhoo.com receive email?

On 2026-10-17 yhoo.com published a null MX record, which says the domain accepts no email. Mail sent to an address there cannot be delivered.

What the ContactLint API returns

For an address at yhoo.com, based on the DNS snapshot above (fields trimmed):

{
  "input": "jane@yhoo.com",
  "verdict": "invalid",
  "reason": "no_mx_or_a",
  "did_you_mean": "jane@yahoo.com",
  "disposable": false
}

Try a live check: check someone@yhoo.com.

Catch it on your signup form

Check the address when the person leaves the email field and offer the fix before they submit. The ContactLint widget does this in the browser with one script tag, and the API returns the same did_you_mean field for server-side checks. See the widget guide, the React and WordPress setup, or the server-side examples. Get a free API key (100 checks per month, no card).
