## Description

SpoofMail validates an email by checking the email’s structure, finding the email’s
MX-Records and checking that the email has not been generated from a temporary or
fake email provider.

SpoofMail provides an asyncronous javascript function for validating emails and 
can also be used as a jQuery plugin if jQuery is available. (jQuery is not required)

Functions exist for both PHP & JavaScript.

The functions provided:

#### PHP

The SpoofMail PHP function takes an email and an optional callback function.
 The
function also returns a simple Boolean for ‘pass’ or ‘fail’. The callback contains
one argument with an array of failed checks or NULL if the email passed all checks.

sm_verify_email( $email, $callback )

#### JavaScript

The SpoofMail JavaScript function takes an email and a callback function.
 The callback
contains two arguments. The first is a simple object containing the ‘pass’ or ‘fail’
status and an array of failed checks. The second argument contains the entire response
object and can mostly be ignored.

spoofMail(email, callback)

The JavaScript function is also available as a jQuery function if jQuery is included.

$.spoofMail(email, callback)
