Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Mail250 appears to be a legitimate but generic bulk email marketing service (SMTP). However, the submission quality is critically low, characterized by unverifiable and hyperbolic claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product'). While the project lists a team of 30 and a valuation/revenue figure of 2.5M, no evidence was provided to substantiate these numbers. The use of 'marketcap' to describe a likely private SaaS company suggests a lack of business precision. Without verifiable traction data to back up the 'everyone' audience claim, the project scores poorly on the Proof of Usefulness scale, falling into the category of projects with minimal verifiable traction or red flags.
