Overview
Email address check for one address: RFC 5322 syntax, MX records (null MX noted), SPF and DMARC records over DNS, role-account flag (info@, admin@ and similar) and a disposable-domain match. No SMTP connection is made, so mailbox existence is not checked. One address per call. Bad input or DNS failure: Not charged. USDC on Base or Polygon.
