Guessmail 💌

[guessmail][Guessmail] helps you find possible email addresses of a person.

Usage

Usage: guessmail [-e] [-l LANGUAGE] first [middle] last domain
    -e, --extended                   Include less common email combinations
    -l, --language LANGUAGE          Set language
    -h, --help                       Shows help message
    -v, --version                    Shows version

Examples

Let's say you want to find the email address of Bill Gates.

$ guessmail Bill Gates microsoft.com

This will return you a set of possible emails:

bill@microsoft.com
gates@microsoft.com
billgates@microsoft.com
bill.gates@microsoft.com
bgates@microsoft.com
b.gates@microsoft.com
billg@microsoft.com    <-- This is the actual email address
bill.g@microsoft.com
bg@microsoft.com
b.g@microsoft.com
gatesbill@microsoft.com
gates.bill@microsoft.com
gatesb@microsoft.com
gates.b@microsoft.com
gbill@microsoft.com
g.bill@microsoft.com
gb@microsoft.com
g.b@microsoft.com

You can then use an email verifier service or use other methods to find out which one of these email addresses belong to the person you are searching for.

[guessmail][Guessmail] can transliterate non-ASCII input since it uses [tate][tate] under the hood. Try it out!

guessmail Игорь Богданов lex.bg -el bg
guessmail Günter Außem gmx.de --language de
guessmail Yukihiro Matz Matsumoto ruby-lang.org

Is it any good?

Yes.
