}

To check if an email is from a disposable email provider

use MailboxValidator::SingleValidation;

my $mbv = MailboxValidator::SingleValidation->Init('PASTE_YOUR_API_KEY_HERE');

my $results = $mbv->DisposableEmail('example@example.com');

if (!defined($results))
{
	print "Error connecting to API.\n";
}
elsif ($results->{error_code} eq '')
{
	print 'email_address = ' . $results->{email_address} . "\n";
	print 'is_disposable = ' . $results->{is_disposable} . "\n";
	print 'credits_available = ' . $results->{credits_available} . "\n";
}
else
{
	print 'error_code = ' . $results->{error_code} . "\n";
	print 'error_message = ' . $results->{error_message} . "\n";
}

To check if an email is from a free email provider

use MailboxValidator::SingleValidation;

my $mbv = MailboxValidator::SingleValidation->Init('PASTE_YOUR_API_KEY_HERE');

my $results = $mbv->FreeEmail('example@example.com');

if (!defined($results))
{
	print "Error connecting to API.\n";
}
elsif ($results->{error_code} eq '')
{
	print 'email_address = ' . $results->{email_address} . "\n";
