## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## 📧 Email & Domain Validator - MX, WHOIS & Deliverability Check

**Validate email deliverability and domain intelligence at scale** — MX records, WHOIS, SPF/DKIM/DMARC, blacklist status, disposable detection and SSL info.

### ✨ Features

- ✅ **Syntax validation** (RFC-compliant regex)
- 📡 **MX record lookup** with priority sorting
- 🔒 **SPF / DKIM / DMARC** policy extraction
- 🗑️ **Disposable email detection** (16+ known domains)
- 👤 **Role-based account detection** (admin, support, info@...)
- 🔐 **SSL/TLS certificate** inspection
- 🌐 **WHOIS-style domain** checks
- 📊 Export as JSON / CSV / Excel

### 📥 Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `emails` | string | — | Email addresses, one per line |
| `maxResults` | integer | 100 | Max emails to validate |

### 📤 Output

Each item: `input`, `valid`, `email`, `domain`, `mxRecords`, `spf`, `dmarc`, `disposable`, `roleBased`, `sslInfo`, `deliverabilityScore`.

### 💡 Use Cases

- **Cold email**: verify deliverability before sending
- **Lead gen**: filter out disposable and role-based addresses
- **Security audit**: check SPF/DKIM/DMARC posture
- **Data hygiene**: maintain clean CRM contact lists
