Verifier Syntax

Verifiers define a method for validating an email address and/or authenticating a user. Verifiers are used in domain configuration. They consist of settings used for communicating with the verification server.

The verifier service contains components that improve verification performance including:

• Enumeration: All valid addresses are retrieved from the verification server and cached locally to speed up verification and reduce the load on network resources.
• Domain discovery: The domains serviced by each verification server are determined and put in a list.

  Verifiers are defined through the Red Condor Administrator Dashboard, or the Red Condor Provisioning API using the Red Condor Verifier XML Syntax (VrfyXML). The Provisioning API exposes additional settings not available in the Administrator Dashboard. Each verifier instance is described by a single <Vrfy> element.

  Note: XML is case sensitive. In general, XML element names in VrfyXML are CamelHumps case while attribute names are usually all lower case. CamelHumps case are also acceptable for attribute values. Also note that the XML comment <!-- ... --> is valid within VrfyXML.
