Having access to status code and debug object would be nice

It's inaccessible from my knowledge. I'll look into making a custom solution because this module isn't production ready

If you use validate_email_or_fail() you should get the exception instead of just False, and if the exception is AddressNotDeliverableError you should get the error messages from the server in the error_messages property.

try:
host = socket.gethostname()
# SMTP lib setup (use debug level for full output)
is_valid = validate_email_or_fail(email_address=abc@abc.com, check_regex=True, check_mx=True, from_address='xyz@gmail.com', helo_host=host, smtp_timeout=10, dns_timeout=10, use_blacklist=False, debug=True)
logger.debug(addressToVerify + " => Response-Code " + str(is_valid))
except Exception:
logger.debug(Exception)

do you mean to say this way ?

e.error_messages will be a list of error messages, one for each mail server for the domain. The error messages are strings in the format mail.domain.org.: 550 5.1.1 The email account that you tried to reach does not exist..

Thanks for the example reinhard

with the code below exceptions are not printing
553 delivery from xx.xxx.xx.xxx is rejected. The connecting IP is blocked using zen.spamhaus.org
550 5.7.606 Access denied, banned sending IP

i can see only below exception is printing
554, b"vastu11.nic.in\nYour access to this mail system has been rejected due to the sending MTA's poor reputation.

@manojr2k the message you see there is what the refusing mail server gives you. you might have more MX records, and one of those is giving you exactly this message.

moreover, another possible scenario is that what you see in your server log differs from what your server shows to the client.

it is looking odd, but there can be many reasons this is happening.
you might have dual stack (IPv4/IPv6), you might have various MX servers, or the servers might be set up to reject email checks in a time limited fashion.
all of this is up to your local network situation and the emails you want to check, and thus nothing I can fix (if there is something to fix at all), since it is nothing I can reproduce.

@manojr2k I think a possible reason for this behaviour is that the server does not even wait for the RCPT TO keyword with the recipient email to test, but already closes the connection before that. Can you verify whether that is the case?

@manojr2k do you get a negative result for a.***sd@**hs.co.in in your example without an exception message?

if i set debug=True while calling function validate_email_or_fail, i get below output , but print shows only [] in exception, that is what my point is.

You should've started with this debug log. As you see from the SMTP converstion, the email is invalid.

What's the issue then? Oh I get it now, sorry, you can't see the response from the server in the exception. I'll look into it.

@manojr2k can you tell me which version of the module you use exactly? these messages should be passed, from the current state of the module. I'm still investigating, but the messages should be passed from what I see now.

I think the bug is that _smtp_converse and _check_one_mx add the error message to error_messages for codes between 400 and 499, but for codes 500 and above _smtp_converse just returns None (it falls off the end of the function) and so _check_one_mx doesn't add anything to the error_messages list. This seems to have been introduced in 35efbb7cd9

Hi Karolyi

thanks for the fix ..
now i can see exceptions are getting logged .but just want to know about the format of exception.
you can see Error code 554 is only getting displayed in the log properly. where as in 2nd case mention below , format seems to be not showing error code, can you please comment for the same.

1)Correct format
2021-02-09 03:52:10,145 ["hostmx01.logix.in: (554, b'pune2.logix.in\nIP blacklisted in http://www.senderbase.org')", "hostmx02.logix.in: (554, b'pune2.logix.in\nIP blacklisted in http://www.senderbase.org')"]

2)doubt about the below format
2021-02-09 03:52:04,534 ['mx2.zoho.in: RCPT TO failed: 5.1.1 <a.s*****@.co.in> User unknown', 'mx.zoho.in: RCPT TO failed: 5.1.1 <a.s@.co.in> User unknown', 'mx3.zoho.in: R
