Detect emails from email generator sites

Ban speedrunning is a lot easier with these sites so only allow emails from certain email sources
Mock-up:

no this isn't my email this is from one of those email generator sites

just check if it ends in it
edit: if it doesn't end in the email sources then it will show the message from the mock-up.
btw this is the same for changing email

actually, a site called remove.bg does this, unsure if theres a repo for it.

This can actually be resolved quite easily though: only whitelisting a few email domains.

I'm not sure how that would work… but support. Ban speedrunners are way more common recently this would cut down on them a bunch.

Is it possible to create a temporary email that ends in a legitimate email website anyway?

I just made an account on that site using a burner email generator

I'm pretty sure this wouldn't be possible since these email generators seem to have access to many different domains, so there's no one-size-fits-all pattern to detecting these emails. It also seems weird to limit the emails that users can sign up with; many people have their own email domain

Yes, although most of the time you'd need a domain and/or an actual email server.
A domain at least

I suggest a title change: instead of using “remove” at the beginning of it, use “detect” so that you can focus on what the suggestion is suggesting.
