Typosquatting
Registering domains that look like real ones, such as a common misspelling, to catch mistyped mail or trick people.

In practice
A person who types gmial.com instead of gmail.com may send to a domain someone else controls. Sites that collect addresses see many such typos.
Verification and sending
Check addresses at entry and suggest corrections for common misspellings. A typo domain can still accept mail, so a successful check does not prove it is the right one.
