EmailValidator
EmailValidator is a Python-based software tool that validates email syntax and deliverability. It offers comprehensive validation features including syntax checking, disposable email detection, DNS resolution, and SMTP connection verification.
The software requires an email address or a list of them. For each email, the software first checks if the email format is correct, then checks if it is a disposable email, then run through its MX record and then SMTP connection to determine if the email is valid. The software utilizes multithreading to process a list of email addresses efficiently and quickly.
