I downloaded the mailcat.py app, try to run it via "./mailcat.py USERNAME', but the result is:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./mailcat.py", line 14, in
import dns.resolver
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dns'

What is going wrong?

I added the requirements.txt file with dependencies, please run pip3 install -r requirements.txt and try again. Also added instruction to README.

Thanks, it works now.
1 last question: do the email results from your app mean that these are valid (existing) mail addresses?

soxoj commented

Yes, exactly.

I experience another result. When I search on 'smitonline' (my username), I get a protonmail as a return (and more); smitonline@protonmail.com. When I send an email to smitonline@protonmail.com, I get a return message (undeliverable).

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you! Here is a new interesting problem with Proton API - all received answers are false-positives, we made another way to check existing mails. Thanks!
