Instance Method Details

#parse(addresses, syntax_only = true) ⇒ Object

Parses a delimiter separated list of email addresses into two lists: parsed addresses and unparsable portions. The parsed addresses are a list of addresses that are syntactically valid (and optionally have DNS and ESP specific grammar checks) the unparsable list is a list of characters sequences that the parser was not able to understand. These often align with invalid email addresses, but not always. Delimiter characters are comma (,) and semicolon (;).

Parameters:

  • addresses (Array) —

    Addresses to parse

  • syntax_only (TrueClass|FalseClass) (defaults to: true) —

    Perform only syntax checks
