Please see FGRibreau/mailchecker#139 and FGRibreau/mailchecker#319

Sneakemail is not a "disposable" or burner email provider. The addresses do not expire, and are valid until the user deletes them. Most people only delete the address if unsubscribe fails.

I hope you will consider to remove the following non-disposable domains used by sneakemail:
liamekaens.com
sneakemail.com
snkmail.com
snkml.com

The same image (since 2000) shows the purpose of sneakemail - hiding the email address from spammers, companies (constantly leaking their user databases), and knowing how spammers found your email. The emails do not expire and are valid until the user manually deletes them (when they become the target of spammers).

Disposable email services are what these were called back then. Since 2000, sneakemail has only ever had used those few domains I listed. That's not the behaviour of someone trying to circumvent signup restrictions.
