Overview

This Python module provides an easy way to call the MailboxValidator Email Validation API which validates if an email address is a valid one.

NOTE: An API key will be given to you when you signup for any of our API plans. This module will require that API key to function.


Installation

Run the following commands
pip install MailboxValidator

Sample Codes

To validate an email address
import MailboxValidator

mbv = MailboxValidator.EmailValidation('PASTE_API_KEY_HERE')
results = mbv.validate_email('example@example.com')

if results is None:
	print("Error connecting to API.\n")
elif results['error_code'] == '':
	print('email_address = ' + results['email_address'] + "\n")
	print('domain = ' + results['domain'] + "\n")
	print('is_free = ' + results['is_free'] + "\n")
	print('is_syntax = ' + results['is_syntax'] + "\n")
	print('is_domain = ' + results['is_domain'] + "\n")
	print('is_smtp = ' + results['is_smtp'] + "\n")
	print('is_verified = ' + results['is_verified'] + "\n")
	print('is_server_down = ' + results['is_server_down'] + "\n")
	print('is_greylisted = ' + results['is_greylisted'] + "\n")
	print('is_disposable = ' + results['is_disposable'] + "\n")
	print('is_suppressed = ' + results['is_suppressed'] + "\n")
	print('is_role = ' + results['is_role'] + "\n")
	print('is_high_risk = ' + results['is_high_risk'] + "\n")
	print('is_catchall = ' + results['is_catchall'] + "\n")
	print('mailboxvalidator_score = ' + str(results['mailboxvalidator_score']) + "\n")
	print('time_taken = ' + str(results['time_taken']) + "\n")
	print('status = ' + results['status'] + "\n")
	print('credits_available = ' + str(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 disposable email provider
import MailboxValidator

mbv = MailboxValidator.EmailValidation('PASTE_API_KEY_HERE')
results = mbv.is_disposable_email('example@example.com')

if results is None:
	print("Error connecting to API.\n")
elif results['error_code'] == '':
	print('email_address = ' + results['email_address'] + "\n")
	print('is_disposable = ' + results['is_disposable'] + "\n")
	print('credits_available = ' + str(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
import MailboxValidator

mbv = MailboxValidator.EmailValidation('PASTE_API_KEY_HERE')
results = mbv.is_free_email('example@example.com')

if results is None:
	print("Error connecting to API.\n")
elif results['error_code'] == '':
	print('email_address = ' + results['email_address'] + "\n")
	print('is_free = ' + results['is_free'] + "\n")
	print('credits_available = ' + str(results['credits_available']) + "\n")
else:
	print('error_code = ' + results['error_code'] + "\n")
	print('error_message = ' + results['error_message'] + "\n")
