They will ban your IP if you scrape their web pages.*\n\n# Sample Help\n```\n$  python emailwhois.py -h\nusage: emailwhois.py [-h] -a API [-d DOMAIN] [-i INFILE] [-o OUTFILE] [-w]\n\nTo look up an email wildcard and find all domains reg'd with it\n\noptional arguments:\n  -h, --help            show this help message and exit\n  -a API, --api API     REQUIRED API to ViewDNS.info\n  -d DOMAIN, --domain DOMAIN\n                        Single domain to search for (Ex: dhs.gov) or use the\n                        -i [file]\n  -i INFILE, --infile INFILE\n                        [OPTIONAL] Input file for all content.

I think viewdns.info may be blocking/shunning IPs after a certain number of repeated lookups. Beware.\n3. The OUTFILE format without the -w (extra whois) option is CSV-compliant and easy to copy/import into other tools (Excel, Maltego...).\n4. The -w (whois) option may hang for long periods when looking up certain domains. Press CTRL-C to skip that \"problem domain\" and move to the next.\n5. If you need to stop the script (especially during the long -w function), press CTRL-Z to send to the background. Then look at the ```[1]+ Stopped``` output and type ```kill %1```. I've used a \"1\" here but in your system, it may be a 2 or 3 or something else. Look for the number inside the \"[ ]\" and ```kill %``` that.\n\n# License\n\u003ca rel=\"license\" href=\"http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Creative Commons License\" style=\"border-width:0\" src=\"https://i.creativecommons.org/l/by-sa/4.0/88x31.png\" /\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eThis work is licensed under a \u003ca rel=\"license\" href=\"http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/\"\u003eCreative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License\u003c/a\u003e.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FWebBreacher%2Femailwhois","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2FWebBreacher%2Femailwhois","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FWebBreacher%2Femailwhois/lists"}
