dovecot - Jan 2021 - SMTP tool for Email validation

Hi,

 

We are looking for a tool for bulk SMTP testing / Email validation using
telnet or similar protocol ( which doesn't send the mails )

 

It generally involves steps like NSlookup to check MX of destination server,
opening port25, telnet to communicate with client server, then finally
checking the correctness of user email account. 

 

Please connect if you have such ready tool with you or you can develop

 

Process example-

Thanks & regards

Hi,

I would recommend using the Swiss Army Knife for SMTP (swaks) for this.
It should be already included in most Linux distributions. Otherwise
you can find it here: https://github.com/jetmore/swaks

You can check the whole SMTP-Protocol chain, or you can tell swaks
after which step to abort. Your use case would be stopping after RCPT,
so you would start it using the extra flag "-q RCPT"

i think we are very offtopic, but "sendmail -bv root" could be a start
