What does a disposable-email checker detect?
A disposable-email checker identifies addresses whose domain belongs to a known temporary-mail provider. That signal can help investigate trial abuse, low-quality signups, and addresses likely to expire, but it does not determine whether a mailbox currently exists or whether the person behind it is legitimate.
This page lowercases and compares the exact domain against a local curated list of roughly 35 providers, so the address is never transmitted. Subdomains and newly launched services can be missed, and legitimate privacy relay addresses may be mistaken for throwaway mail if policy treats every masked address alike.
