Woo EDD Email Domain Blacklist

Description

Ever wanted to prevent users using temporary or disposable emails in checkout page? With this plugin, you can!

There are many websites (eg. 10minutemail.net, guerrillamail.com etc) which provides temporary email service. These websites use many different domain names in their temporary email addresses. All you have to do is, put these domain names in this plugin’s settings page. After that when a user will try to place an order using the blacklisted email domain, checkout process will be interrupted and user will see an error notice.

You can configure the plugin settings from “Settings>Woo EDD Email Blacklist” menu from admin panel.

If you have no idea how many temporary domain names exists out there and you want to block all of them anyway, you can enable the option “External blacklist” from plugin settings. I have already created a list of temporary domain names and kept it in my server, enabling this option will pull that list from my server and store it in your database. I will try to update this list in regular intervals. For more information, please read the FAQ section.

I installed this plugin and activated it. I added some domains which I have been receiving spam from and then tried registering using the domains which I added to the blacklist. All the domains registered successfully. I refreshed and tested a few times but they were still able to register, no problem. Unfortunately this plugin doesn’t work, but it would have been very useful.

Very simple and easy. I couldn’t find any other plugins doing this. I haven’t had any problems, I will update this if I do. I am using it to block domains like “Gmail.con” and one domain which is blocking our emails. Edit: I have now been using this for a year. It seems to work silently and perfectly.
