The OTM Detector module is a lightweight module that allows you to detect one-time mail services by checking the MX (Mail Exchange) records of a given hostname. Most of similar modules have block list of one-time mail services, but this module uses a different approach to detect one-time mail services. It checks the MX records of the hostname to determine if it belongs to a one-time mail service. Usually such services purchase a lot of domains and use them as one-time mail services. This module is able to detect such services.
To install the OTM Detector module, use the following command:
npm install otm-detector
To use the OTM Detector module in your project, require it and call the isOneTimeMail
function, passing the hostname as a parameter. The function will return true
if the hostname belongs to a one-time mail service, and false
otherwise.
Import:
import { isOneTimeMail } from 'otm-detector';
const hostname = 'example.com';
const isOTM = await isOneTimeMail(hostname);
console.log(`Is ${hostname} a one-time mail service? ${isOTM}`);
Require:
const { isOneTimeMail } = require('otm-detector');
const hostname = 'example.com';
const isOTM = await isOneTimeMail(hostname);
console.log(`Is ${hostname} a one-time mail service? ${isOTM}`);
We recommend using this module with existing burner email providers (for example, https://github.com/wesbos/burner-email-providers) to provide better results
