Thanks for the suggestion! I will spend some time in the next week looking into this. It may be a useful feature to add.

If this can help, here is a very basic method relying on dnsjava library:

import org.xbill.DNS.Lookup;
import org.xbill.DNS.Record;
import org.xbill.DNS.TextParseException;
import org.xbill.DNS.Type;

public boolean hasMxRecord(final String email) {
    final String[] chunks = email.split("@");
    if (chunks.length < 2) {
        return false;
    }

    try {
        final Record[] records = new Lookup(chunks[1], Type.MX).run();
        return records != null && records.length > 0;
    } catch (TextParseException e) {
        return false;
    }
}

Thanks! The dnsjava library looks nice. I will use it as a reference when implementing this as I don't want to bring in any dependencies to jmail.

If you need this functionality in the meantime, you can add your own validation rule to your EmailValidator like this:

EmailValidator validator = JMail.validator()
    .withRule(email -> {
      try {
        Records[] records = new Lookup(email.domainWithoutComments(), Type.MX).run();
        return records != null && records.length > 0;
      } catch (Exception e) {
        return false;
      }
    });

boolean valid = validator.isValid("[email protected]");

Hi @lpellegr I have added this option to the library, which is now available in version 1.5.0.

You can use it as such:

EmailValidator validator = JMail.validator().requireValidMXRecord();

boolean valid = validator.isValid("[email protected]");

Please let me know if you run into any issues with this feature!
