Introduction

The Disposable Email API helps users to detect and block disposable emails from sign up. It checks if an email address is from a disposable email provider and returns the results in either JSON or XML format. Disposable email addresses (DEAs) are temporary email addresses that are only valid for a very short period of time. You can try out the online disposable email checker to learn more

NOTE: You will get your API key when you sign up for any MailboxValidator API plans.

Disposable Email API Sample Codes

<?php
$apiKey = 'Enter_License_Key';
$params['format']           = 'json';
$params['email']     = 'Enter_Email';

$query = '';

foreach($params as $key=>$value){
    $query .= '&' . $key . '=' . rawurlencode($value);
}

$try = 0;
do {
    ////////////
    //For https request, please make sure you have enabled php_openssl.dll extension.
    //
    //How to enable https
    //- Uncomment ;extension=php_openssl.dll by removing the semicolon in your php.ini, and restart the apache.
    //
    //In case you have difficulty to modify the php.ini, you can always make the http request instead of https.
    ////////////
    $result = file_get_contents('https://api.mailboxvalidator.com/v1/validation/single?key=' . $apiKey . $query);
} while(!$result && $try++ < 3);
