installation and usage instructions

Installation

Install the module through YARN:

1yarn add @devmehq/email-validator-js

Or NPM

1npm install @devmehq/email-validator-js

Examples

1import { verifyEmail } from '@devmehq/email-validator-js';
2
3const { validFormat, validSmtp, validMx } = await verifyEmail({ emailAddress: 'foo@email.com', verifyMx: true, verifySmtp: true, timeout: 3000 });
4// validFormat: true
5// validMx: true
6// validSmtp: true

When a domain does not exist or has no MX records, the domain validation will fail, and the mailbox validation will return null because it could not be performed:

1const { validFormat, validSmtp, validMx } = await verifyEmail({ emailAddress: 'foo@bad-domain.com', verifyMx: true, verifySmtp: true, timeout: 3000 });
2// validFormat: true
3// validMx: false
4// validSmtp: null

A valid Yahoo domain will still return validSmtp true because their SMTP servers do not allow verifying if a mailbox exists.

Configuration options

timeout

Set a timeout in seconds for the smtp connection. Default: 10000.

verifyMx

Enable or disable domain checking. This is done in two steps:

1. Verify that the domain does indeed exist;
2. Verify that the domain has valid MX records. Default: false.

verifySmtp

Enable or disable mailbox checking. Only a few SMTP servers allow this, and even then whether it works depends on your IP's reputation with those servers. This library performs a best effort validation:

• It returns null for Yahoo addresses, for failed connections, for unknown SMTP errors.
• It returns true for valid SMTP responses.
• It returns false for SMTP errors specific to the address's formatting or mailbox existence. Default: false.
