## Find out if a gmail address is used or not

A simple module verify whether a gmail address is valid. Made after I read [x0rz's article](https://blog.0day.rocks/abusing-gmail-to-get-previously-unlisted-e-mail-addresses-41544b62b2) on the topic and the techique used.

## Credit / how this works.

This is only a couple of minutes work. All credit belongs to [x0rz](https://blog.0day.rocks). For no particular reason, versions since 1.03 use [saml's technique](https://gist.github.com/saml/2268291).

## Usage

const isGmailAccountValid = require('is-gmail-account-valid')

isGmailAccountValid('mike.maccana', function(err, result){
console.log(err, result)
})

`result` will be `true` for valid accounts and `false` for invalid accounts.
