• Validates email was not generated by disposable email service using 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

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": {

  //         "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:

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.

Default options can be found here
