PHP Module

This PHP module provides an easy way to call the MailboxValidator 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.

Add the following to your composer.json file.

"require": {
	"mailboxvalidator/mailboxvalidator-php": "2.0.*"
}

To validate an email address

<?php
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use MailboxValidator\EmailValidation;

$mbv = new EmailValidation('PASTE_YOUR_API_KEY_HERE');

$results = $mbv->validateEmail('example@example.com');

if ($results === null) {
	echo "Error connecting to API.\n";
}
else if (trim($results->error_code) === '') {
	echo 'email_address = ' . $results->email_address . "\n";
	echo 'domain = ' . $results->domain . "\n";
	echo 'is_free = ' . $results->is_free . "\n";
	echo 'is_syntax = ' . $results->is_syntax . "\n";
	echo 'is_domain = ' . $results->is_domain . "\n";
	echo 'is_smtp = ' . $results->is_smtp . "\n";
	echo 'is_verified = ' . $results->is_verified . "\n";
	echo 'is_server_down = ' . $results->is_server_down . "\n";
	echo 'is_greylisted = ' . $results->is_greylisted . "\n";
	echo 'is_disposable = ' . $results->is_disposable . "\n";
	echo 'is_suppressed = ' . $results->is_suppressed . "\n";
	echo 'is_role = ' . $results->is_role . "\n";
	echo 'is_high_risk = ' . $results->is_high_risk . "\n";
	echo 'is_catchall = ' . $results->is_catchall . "\n";
	echo 'mailboxvalidator_score = ' . $results->mailboxvalidator_score . "\n";
	echo 'time_taken = ' . $results->time_taken . "\n";
	echo 'status = ' . $results->status . "\n";
	echo 'credits_available = ' . $results->credits_available . "\n";
}
else {
	echo 'error_code = ' . $results->error_code . "\n";
	echo 'error_message = ' . $results->error_message . "\n";
}
?>
			

To check if an email is from a disposable email provider

<?php
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use MailboxValidator\EmailValidation;

$mbv = new EmailValidation('PASTE_YOUR_API_KEY_HERE');

$results = $mbv->isDisposableEmail('example@example.com');

if ($results === null) {
	echo "Error connecting to API.\n";
}
else if (trim($results->error_code) === '') {
	echo 'email_address = ' . $results->email_address . "\n";
	echo 'is_disposable = ' . $results->is_disposable . "\n";
	echo 'credits_available = ' . $results->credits_available . "\n";
}
else {
	echo 'error_code = ' . $results->error_code . "\n";
	echo 'error_message = ' . $results->error_message . "\n";
}
?>
			

To check if an email is from a free email provider

<?php
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use MailboxValidator\EmailValidation;

$mbv = new EmailValidation('PASTE_YOUR_API_KEY_HERE');

$results = $mbv->isFreeEmail('example@example.com');

if ($results === null) {
	echo "Error connecting to API.\n";
}
else if (trim($results->error_code) === '') {
	echo 'email_address = ' . $results->email_address . "\n";
	echo 'is_free = ' . $results->is_free . "\n";
	echo 'credits_available = ' . $results->credits_available . "\n";
}
else {
	echo 'error_code = ' . $results->error_code . "\n";
	echo 'error_message = ' . $results->error_message . "\n";
}
?>
