📧 email-validator-ultimate

A powerful Node.js email validation library that goes beyond regex.
Performs DNS/MX record checks, SMTP deliverability tests, disposable email detection, and more.

⚠️ Important

If you want to check if an email inbox exists (SMTP/bounce check), make sure:

Your server allows outbound port 25 (many hosts block it by default).
You provide a valid fromEmail sender (e.g., noreply@yourdomain.com).
SMTP check is optional and disabled by default.

🔧 Features

✅ Format validation (RFC-compliant)
📮 MX record lookup
✉️ SMTP inbox existence check (optional)
🚫 Disposable email detection
👤 Generic username detection (e.g., admin, info)
💼 Provider and domain info
🔢 Email quality scoring
🆓 Free email provider detection (e.g., Gmail, Yahoo)
💡 Catch-all detection (optional)

📦 Installation

npm install email-validator-ultimate

📦 Installation

Basic Example (ESM)


import { validateEmail } from 'email-validator-ultimate';

const result = await validateEmail({
  email: 'someone@example.com',
  fromEmail: 'noreply@yourdomain.com',
  smtpCheck: true,       // Enable SMTP validation (optional)
  debug: true            // Optional SMTP debug logs
});

console.log(result);

Using with Express (CommonJS)

const { validateEmail } = require('email-validator-ultimate');

app.post('/validate', async (req, res) => {
  const result = await validateEmail({
    email: req.body.email,
    fromEmail: 'noreply@yourdomain.com',
    smtpCheck: true
  });

  res.json(result);
});
