Mail servers for googlemail.com

googlemail.com publishes 5 MX records. Senders deliver to the lowest-priority host first, gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com, and fall back down the list if it does not answer.

Who runs the mail

The hosts match the pattern of Google Workspace / Gmail. Google's servers answer mailbox checks reliably: an address that does not exist is rejected during the SMTP handshake, so verdicts at this domain are usually definitive rather than catch-all.

What this means for verification

An address at googlemail.com passes the free checks (syntax, MX, lists), so the API goes on to the mailbox-level SMTP handshake, which ends before any message is sent. The result is deliverable, risky, or undeliverable with a reason field that names the evidence.
