Disposable email detection (local-first)

Feature

Disposable email domains — Detects and scores disposable/temporary email domains to reduce fake leads and spam registrations.

How it works

The engine checks the email domain against a local list (and optionally a fetched list if you enable it) and adds score if it matches.

How to access / enable

  1. WP Admin → AegisSpamGuard → Settings
  2. Identity module settings
  3. Enable disposable detection options if present.

Recommended setting

Recommended: ON (local list), external list OFF unless you enable external calls.

Local lists are privacy-first and stable; external lists can improve coverage but require outbound HTTP.

Why you need this

Admins improve lead quality and reduce fraudulent signups.
