To use this package to validate the email coming from form submission, you will just need to include `'|disposable'`in Validator function in `app\Http\Controllers\Auth\RegisterController.php` . A step by step tutorial is included [here](https://www.mailboxvalidator.com/resources/articles/how-to-use-mailboxvalidator-laravel-email-validation-package-to-validate-email-during-registration/).

To print the validation result on single email, you will first need to include this line on top of your file: `use MailboxValidatorLaravel\Validation\ValidateEmail;` . Then, initialite the ValidateEmail class by using this line: `$validate = new ValidateEmail();`. Lastly, just call `$validate->GetValidateDisposable('email_tobe_validate','your_api_key');` into a variable and print out the variable. For example, your controller file might be looks like this:

```
