Registration email domain blacklisting
-
Well looks like I was an ID10T on this one. npm install pulls the original Annihil version cuz that is where package.json tells it to grab it from.

Manual installation of Julian's/NodeBB 3rd Party forked version, available here: https://github.com/NodeBB-Community/nodebb-plugin-email-blacklist
-
Coupled with my URL query string update above and ... voila! Now works dandy w/both manually added addresses and istempmail.org API key.
The function isTempMail's path var needs to be thusly:
path: '/api/check/Your-API-Key-Here/' + email
Or maybe I neglected the trailing slash first time around. In any event, geronimo, there ya' go.

hi @julian , will this plugin be updated to work with NodeBB 1.19.0 ?
GitHub - NodeBB-Community/nodebb-plugin-email-blacklist: A NodeBB plugin that provides email blacklist feature
A NodeBB plugin that provides email blacklist feature - NodeBB-Community/nodebb-plugin-email-blacklist
GitHub (github.com)
currently, it does not prevent registration addresses from the blacklisted domains...
Additionally, the original repository is gone but the broken link is in the package.json, I guess it makes sense to update that too. Thanks in advance.

Usually opencollective is used to finance the support of third-party plugins. Without such support, it is impossible for a small team to support all plugins.
Example:

@baris, what do you think about it? Open an account for podderki third-party plugins and nodebb in general. -
@crazycells The plugin has now been updated to support v2.
The
isTempMailportion is now disabled as that API is no longer free. -

Damn. Well, that sucks!
Good to know, though. I have not kept up w/the isTempMail "news".
Now the question becomes... how to replicate it as true ROSS plugin? Hmm...

@gotwf chasing after temporary mail domains is like playing whack-a-mole. There's no way to do it cheaply because there's some human element involved..
I wonder if anyone maintains a GitHub gist of temp mail domains ... Hmm

Yep. Hence the "thinking" emoji.
I was pondering how isTempMail might be handling this on the backend. I presumed it must be automated/ai in some way because....

Yes, "they" do.
Many such specialized black lists, actually. Issue is the veracity thereof. Many of these miscreant types are able to leverage large discontinuous IP blocks. Ever fsck'ing evolution of the arms race 'twixt good and evil. And of course, the latter always has the advantage.

@julian Just found this:
burner-email-providers
A list of burner email providers.. Latest version: 1.0.67, last published: 3 years ago. Start using burner-email-providers in your project by running `npm i burner-email-providers`. There is 1 other project in the npm registry using burner-email-providers.
npm (www.npmjs.com)
There are several others. That one looks to be the most "recently" maintained. Maybe worth a gander?

@baris thank you. this is a very useful plugin.
admins can copy the email list from here:
disposable-email-domains/disposable_email_blocklist.conf at main 路 disposable-email-domains/disposable-email-domains
