When a user signs up with `silas@gmial.com`, they almost certainly meant `silas@gmail.com` — and every mail you send to the typoed address will bounce. This package detects typos in the domain part of an email address by comparing it against a list of known mail providers, and suggests the domain the user most likely meant. Perfect for a *"Did you mean ?"* prompt on your registration or checkout form. Features -------- [](#features) - **Typo detection** — detects swapped, missing or extra characters in mail provider domains (`gmial.com`, `hotmal.com`, `gmaill.com`, …) and returns the most likely intended domain. - **Domain validation** — check whether an email uses a known mail provider domain. - **False-positive protection** — real providers that *look* like typos of bigger ones (e.g. `ymail.com`, `mailbox.org`) are listed as "excluded" domains, so they are recognized as valid and never flagged. - **Zero setup, fast** — the provider lists ship with the package as plain PHP arrays. No database, no cache, no seeding; validating millions of addresses is pure in-memory work. - **Extendable** — add your own provider domains through a config file. Planned for future versions: DNS record validation and spoofing checks. Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) DependencySupported versionsPHP8.2 – 8.4Laravel12.x, 13.xOnly [actively supported Laravel versions](https://laravel.com/docs/releases#support-policy) are supported. No database or cache is needed: the provider lists ship with the package. Installation ------------ [](#installation) Install the package via composer: ``` composer require silassiai/laravel-email-validation ``` The service provider is auto-discovered by Laravel, so there is nothing to register manually — you can start validating right away. Updates to the built-in provider lists arrive automatically with `composer update`. Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) Want to validate against your own provider domains as well? Publish the config file: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --tag=email-validation-config ``` Then add your domains in `config/email-validation.php`. They are merged with the built-in lists: ``` return [ // Checked for typos, just like the built-in providers 'additional_popular' => [ 'snelmail' => ['nl'], ], // Recognized as valid, but never reported as a typo of another provider 'additional_excluded' => [ 'mijnbedrijf' => ['nl'], ], ]; ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) ### Typo validation [](#typo-validation) `hasTypo()` returns the domain the user probably meant, or `null` when no typo was found: ``` use Silassiai\LaravelEmailValidation\Facades\EmailValidationFacade; EmailValidationFacade::for('silas@gmial.com')->hasTypo(); // 'gmail.com' EmailValidationFacade::for('silas@hotmal.nl')->hasTypo(); // 'hotmail.nl' EmailValidationFacade::for('silas@gmail.com')->hasTypo(); // null (valid address) EmailValidationFacade::for('silas@mycompany.com')->hasTypo(); // null (unknown domain, no suggestion) ``` When the domain name matches a provider but the extension isn't in the provider's list of known extensions, only the domain name is returned: ``` EmailValidationFacade::for('silas@gmial.xyz')->hasTypo(); // 'gmail' ``` A typical *"did you mean"* flow in a controller: ``` if ($suggestion = EmailValidationFacade::for($request->email)->hasTypo()) { $localPart = Str::before($request->email, '@'); return back()->withInput()->with( 'email_suggestion', "Did you mean {$localPart}@{$suggestion}?" ); } ``` ### Domain validation [](#domain-validation) `hasValidDomain()` checks whether the domain name belongs to a known mail provider: ``` EmailValidationFacade::for('silas@gmail.com')->hasValidDomain(); // true EmailValidationFacade::for('silas@mycompany.com')->hasValidDomain(); // false ``` How it works ------------ [](#how-it-works) The package ships with two curated domain lists (see `Silassiai\LaravelEmailValidation\Data\MailProviderDomains`): - **Popular domains** — well-known providers such as `gmail`, `hotmail`, `yahoo` and `outlook`. Incoming email domains are compared against these to find typos. - **Excluded domains** — real, valid providers such as `ymail` and `mailbox` that closely resemble a popular domain. These are recognized as valid and are never reported as a typo of another provider. The domain part of the email is parsed from the right: the extension is the last label — or the last two labels for known two-label suffixes such as `co.uk` and `com.au` — and the domain name is the label directly in front of it. Subdomains are ignored, so `silas@mail.mycompany.nl` is treated as domain name `mycompany` with extension `nl` and does not collide with the `mail` provider. The two-label suffixes are a curated subset of the [Public Suffix List](https://publicsuffix.org/list/public_suffix_list.dat), covering the countries where the built-in providers operate (see `SECOND_LEVEL_SUFFIXES` in `Silassiai\LaravelEmailValidation\Validation\Email`). The full list — thousands of entries, including internationalized suffixes — is intentionally not bundled: for a suffix that is not in the subset (say `com.gy`), the parser falls back to treating the last label as the extension. That misparse is harmless: the resulting domain name (`com`, `net`, `org`, …) never matches or resembles a provider, so no false typo is ever reported — at worst a typo in such a domain goes undetected. For the typo check itself, the domain name is compared against each popular provider using: 1. a **length check** — a difference of more than one character is never considered a typo; 2. a **character frequency comparison** — at most 1 character may differ, or 2 for domain names longer than six characters; 3. a **first-characters check** — real typos rarely start completely differently, so at least part of the first three characters must line up. Testing ------- [](#testing) ``` composer test # run the PHPUnit test suite composer analyse # run PHPStan static analysis (level: max) composer format # fix code style with Laravel Pint composer format:test # check code style without fixing ``` The test suite runs against PHP 8.2 – 8.4 and Laravel 12 – 13 on every push via GitHub Actions, along with PHPStan at the maximum level and a Pint code style check.
