Transparent Email

To detect multi-accounts on your website.

Installation

pip install transparentemail

Usage

from transparentemail.src import get_primary_email
from transparentemail.services.Emails.emailException import InvalidEmailException

try:
    
    transformed_email = get_primary_email('John.Doe+alias@gmail.com')
    print(transformed_email)  # John.Doe@gmail.com

except InvalidEmailException:
    print('Invalid Email')

Yahoo.com

Aliases work different on Yahoo than on Gmail. On Gmail part after plus is skipped. For example message sent to janedoe+alias@gmail.com will be redirected to janedoe@gmail.com.

Yahoo uses the following pattern*:

baseName-keyword@yahoo.com

• baseName - value defined by the user, different than email login;
• keyword - one from a list of keywords defined by the user.

Therefore we do not know what is the real email, so in this case result will be baseName@yahoo.com, which actually does not exist.
