# Email Validator

Validates email addresses based on regex, common typos, disposable email blacklists, DNS records and SMTP server response.

- Validates email looks like an email i.e. contains an "@" and a "." to the right of it.
- Validates common typos e.g. [email protected] using [mailcheck](https://github.com/mailcheck/mailcheck).
- Validates email was not generated by disposable email service using [disposable-email-domains](https://github.com/ivolo/disposable-email-domains).
- Validates MX records are present on DNS.
- Validates SMTP server is running.
- Validates mailbox exists on SMTP server.
- Native typescript support.

## Getting Started

Compatible with nodejs only. Not browser ready.

Install like so

```
npm i deep-email-validator --save
```

or with yarn

```
yarn add deep-email-validator
```

Use like so

```typescript
import { validate } from 'deep-email-validator'
const main = async () => {
let res = await validate('[email protected]')
// {
// "valid": false,
// "reason": "smtp",
// "validators": {
// "regex": {
// "valid": true
// },
// "typo": {
// "valid": true
// },
// "disposable": {
// "valid": true
// },
// "mx": {
// "valid": true
// },
// "smtp": {
// "valid": false,
// "reason": "Mailbox not found.",
// }
// }
// }

// Can also be called with these default options
await validate({
email: '[email protected]',
sender: '[email protected]',
validateRegex: true,
validateMx: true,
validateTypo: true,
validateDisposable: true,
validateSMTP: true,
})
}
```

If you want to validate domains with TLDs that are not supported by default, you can use `additionalTopLevelDomains` option:

```typescript
await validate({
email: '[email protected]',
sender: '[email protected]',
validateRegex: true,
validateMx: true,
validateTypo: true,
validateDisposable: true,
validateSMTP: true,
additionalTopLevelDomains: [ 'ir' ]
})
```
For a list of TLDs that are supported by default you can see [here](https://github.com/mailcheck/mailcheck/blob/afca031b4ce1cdc6e3ecbe88198f41b4835f81e3/src/mailcheck.js#L31).
