# Jotform

**Jotform has a native integration of Clearout email validation** as the Clearout Widge&#x74;**,** and validation settings can be configured directly on the Clearout widget. The Clearout real-time email verifier will detect and reject:

* Misspelled and other invalid email addresses
* Role-based email addresses that have low value to your sales and marketing
* Temporary, disposable or throwaway emails that cause bounces
* Spam traps, which can damage your sender reputation and can get you blacklisted
* Gibberish emails, which are random email addresses created by spammers usually
