Wyld Registration Sentry – Block Disposable Emails

Fake and throwaway signups fill your user list with accounts nobody can reach. Wyld Registration Sentry checks each email address before the account is created, and blocks the ones that won’t work.

It checks registrations and email changes against the WyldAPI email validation service. You choose what gets blocked:

• email domains that don’t exist or don’t resolve
• domains with no MX records, so they can’t receive mail (always blocked)
• disposable and temporary email services
• free email services like Gmail or Outlook (optional, allowed by default)
• top-level domains you pick from a list, like .xyz or .top (optional)

It also:

• checks email changes made in wp-admin and through code, not just new registrations
• keeps an activity log of blocked attempts that you can review in the admin
• lets you decide whether signups go through or get blocked if the validation service is down or out of credits

You’ll find the settings under Settings > Wyld Registration Sentry. Signing up for WyldAPI gives you free credits to try it out.

External services

This plugin connects to the WyldAPI email validation service to validate email addresses during user registration and when users change their email address.

It sends the email address being validated to WyldAPI when a registration is submitted or when an email address is changed and the relevant validation checks are enabled in the plugin settings.
