Information

This CLI will either accept string input of email addresses or a file(s) input(s) or a directory containing .csv files, omitting duplicates and then it will determine if the email is valid based on logic inside email check source. It will write to output with duplicates, valid and invalid emails amongst other useful information.

A run of 6000 emails across 4 csv files peaked ~190MB RAM, allowing 200 concurrent tasks across all threads. Note: careful with --concurrency, on a linux machine running systemd-resolved caused DDOS as of 2023-09-22, running unbound DNS server worked fine, this might also saturate your internet connection.

Usage/Installation

Subcommand check-string

```shell $ cargo run -- check-string --help

Usage: email-validate check-string [OPTIONS] --input

Options: --input separated by space, coma or semicolon --concurrency [default: 25] --timeout-seconds per item [default: 120] -h, --help Print help -V, --version Print version ```
