Fields #

FieldTypeNotes
emailstring
patternstringThe template it came from, e.g. {f}{last}@{domain}.
statusstringdeliverable - accepted, on a domain that rejects unknown addresses; the one worth sending to. accepts_all - accepted on a catch-all domain, where acceptance means nothing. risky - the mailbox exists and should not be mailed: a role account, a disposable host, a domain with a complaint history. unknown - the server would not say, through greylisting, a temporary failure, or a policy of refusing verification traffic.

Absent is not null: a field we did not get is omitted rather than sent as an empty string, so you can tell "LinkedIn does not have this" from "this person left it blank".
