How catch-all addresses are handled

ZeroBounce charges credits for catch-all addresses and returns an AI confidence score rather than a concrete send/hold verdict. Independent testing (Allegrow, February 2026) reported an 8.1% false-positive rate on catch-all addresses. VerifyFlow assigns the same addresses a SAFE, PROTECTED, RISKY, or DEAD label.
