check (also) for email providers to determine if valid email is /not/ a company address

[clysss]

Hello,
https://gist.github.com/ammarshah/f5c2624d767f91a7cbdc4e54db8dd0bf
maintain a list of email providers (free, paid...)

could we add a second validation like
isFromProvider (if isValid) to check if the email is (not) a company address

The interest to implement it on mailchecker is that no more tools will be needed
Of course, if you seems that this idea is interesting, I can create a PR

Can you expand on the use case?

yes :) with pleasure we use mailchecker to verify data/email from sign-in form our "service" is for IT professionals mainly for large companies : so they are supposed to have a "professionnal" email and in our case mostly @gmail @yahoo... address are scam more or less like drop emails more precisely, if it's an email from "provider", we want to add an extra layer of questions/checks in the form to verify the "trust" of the user so idealy, we need to have the current isValid() and a another command to check if not in the second list if it's easier we can also imaginate 2 calls : one to isValid() and one to isValid( , includeProvider=true) tell me what could be the best way to handle it in the code, I should be able to write the code and can make a PR if needed after your advice The interest to have only one tool for this 2 functions is that all the updates are in the same place when I search for this tool, I have found several "solutions" that combine 2 seperate tools but for this reason, most of them are outdated regards

@clysss here's a simple free tool that compares different publicly available blocklists (including this one): https://unfake.dev/compare-blocklists
