Dehashed - junk data returns each time along with the valid results

[khast3x]

Hello all,

Yes the Dehashed API returns quite a lot of data. h8mail already does a first pass of cleaning blank results, but some results do still have a very verbose structure.
I had contacted the support while developing this version to mention the blank fields, and they answered the following:

The reason we keep the structure intact is because some people can't parse them in/out. We've had them removed before but people requested we keep the structure there so we decided to serve it even if it's blank/null.

I am not sure if this also applies to the junk data but it might. Going to notify support about this issue, will update.

@kkris9 noted for the globing, I'll check if it applies to the API too.

In the meantime, you can check the raw data returned by the API using --debug.

Cheers!

Same here. The output shows every e-mail address from dehashed which contains the word "email".
fyi:
When you search for a domain on the dehashed website like they suggest (email:"*@domain.com"), you also receive over a million results (junk) which seems to be the same output like in h8mail. But when you search for *domain.com the results are correct.

Hello,

Fixed with PR #97 .
Run pip3 install --upgrade h8mail to update h8mail to the latest version (2.5.4).

Cheers!
