{
    public function handleEmail(Request $request)
    {
        $request->validate([
            'email' => 'required|email|disposable',
        ]);

        // ...
    }
}

Standalone

$checker = new \romanzipp\MailCheck\Checker;

// Validate domain
$validDomain = $checker->allowedDomain('ich.wtf');

// Validate mail address (uses domain check endpoint internally)
$validEmail = $checker->allowedEmail('[email protected]');

Advanced Usage

You can make your disposable checks more hard or loose by configuring the edge case behavior. There are 3 possible outcomes to set:

• romanzipp\MailCheck\Enums\ApiIssue::ALLOW - allow the domain/mail
• romanzipp\MailCheck\Enums\ApiIssue::DENY - deny the chekechecked domain/mail
• romanzipp\MailCheck\Enums\ApiIssue::EXCEPTION - throw a DisposableMailException

Rate Limit exceeded

return [
    // ... 
    'decision_rate_limit' => \romanzipp\MailCheck\Enums\ApiIssue::EXCEPTION,
];

No MX DNS records present

There is no MX DNS entry present on the checked domain which means they can not receive any messages.

return [
    // ... 
    'decision_no_mx' => \romanzipp\MailCheck\Enums\ApiIssue::EXCEPTION,
];

Invalid request

return [
    // ... 
    'decision_invalid' => \romanzipp\MailCheck\Enums\ApiIssue::EXCEPTION,
];
