Email Validate

Parse, validate and clean an email address.

Email validate has the following core functions:

Syntax Checks

Check if the email address is RFC822 and RFC2822 compliant

DNS Validation

Check if the email domain resolves correctly and has working MX (mail exchanger) records

Typo Fixing

Automatically fix common domain, TLD (top-level domain) and freemail address typos

Freemail Filtering

Determine if the email address is a freemail address, i.e. from a service providing free email

Disposable Filtering

Determine if the email address is associated with a disposable, temporary or darknet email service

Role Detection

Check if an email address is personal or role based

Note:
Also need SMTP based user/mailbox verification? Check out the Email Verify API
