I wonder if there's a way to run a headless browser, and go to Gmail's password recovery page https://accounts.google.com/signin/v2/usernamerecovery. Use the headless browser to input the email to verify, and hopefully with the messages that Gmail returns, we can know its existence.

Similarly to how we currently do for hotmail.

tried that method
but not working for gmail
they detect its way too easy and block you after few attempt with captcha

Yes can confirm also from my side.
In my experience SMTP is very unreliable, are there any other methods that can be used for Gmail ?

Did quick research and there "kind of" is alternative but it requires your cookie and additional token. Look for https://people-pa.clients6.google.com url in Github. This is an endpoint where google checks if account is with them. Previously it was https://mail.google.com/mail/gxlu
