API

First require the package in your application

$ var mailTester = require('mail-tester');

The mailTester object exposes the following functions:

mailTester.check(email, callback)

This function takes an email and a callback as parameters. It checks the email against the Mailtest-API and passes the result through a parameter in the callback function.

Example:

var mailTester = require('mail-tester');
  
var email = 'test@gmail.com';
  
mailTester.check(email, function(data) {
  console.log(data);
})

The output of the above snippet would be

{ 
  code: '01', 
  status: 'ACTIVE', 
  message: 'OK' 
}

Response Types

The following types of responses may be returned for a given test email.

Note: MailTest limits their service to 120 requests per hour per IP.
