Generally email api's will not be able to tell you if you are sending to a bad email address. Just because mail.send returns to you it does not mean the email has actually been sent. It may sit in a queue for an arbitrary amount of time before going out. The issue however, is that gae email has had poor deliverability for a while now. I'd imagine several spammers found out about app engine and setup numerous accounts to send their spam. Now many filters are flagging mail from gae. If you need a higher level of deliverability I would highly recommend other options such as amazon SES.
