Catch-all

A verifier cannot confirm that a person exists on such a domain, because the server says yes to everything. It can only report the address as catch-all.

Treat those addresses as unconfirmed: send a small test batch first and suppress the domain if it later bounces.

Both ana@northwind.example.test and zzz@northwind.example.test are accepted by a catch-all domain.

ValidReach returns catchall as its own result. See the catch-all verifier for how it is detected.
