Hello all
Over at http://www.DNSstuff.com, they have a great
tool to check whether an e-mail address is from a free
(web-based) e-mail provider. I need to be able to
perform this check from PHP code. However, the Terms
and Conditions of http://www.DNSstuff.com prohibit me
from writing a scraping script to access their
database of free e-mail domains over the WWW
interface.
Would anyone know where to get a list of free e-mail
domains (like hotmail.com, mail.com etc)? Or how one
could (automatically) generate ones own? Or has
someone already written a function to perform this
check?
TIA
Paul
