## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability is-email-hosted-by-ovh-mail-a82da5e1
```

Example prompt: Can you check whether the email for acmecorp.com is hosted on OVH Mail — look up the MX records and tell me if any of them match OVH Mail's servers?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need to detect OVH Mail (as opposed to OVH Cloud Exchange, which has its own sibling endpoint) as the email hosting provider for a domain. It is ideal for sales prospecting pipelines, email migration audits, and deliverability profiling workflows where knowing the exact email host matters. For bulk processing of multiple domains, prefer the bulk variant. For detecting other providers, use the corresponding provider-specific endpoints in the same family.

## Known failure modes

- Domain does not exist or has no MX records — returns no match
- DNS lookup failure via Cloudflare DoH — service may return an error or timeout
- Domain uses OVH Cloud Exchange instead of OVH Mail — a separate endpoint exists for that provider
- Ambiguous or newly added OVH Mail MX patterns not yet in the matcher — may return false negative
- Invalid or malformed domain input — may return error or empty result

## How this service works

Is the domain's email hosted by ovh mail? Looks up the MX records (Cloudflare DoH) and matches them against ovh-mail's mail-exchanger patterns, returning yes/no, the MX hosts and which matched. Provider detection for deliverability, sales and migration work. $0.01 per lookup.

## Output

Returns a yes/no indicator of whether the domain's email is hosted by OVH Mail, along with the full list of MX records retrieved from Cloudflare DoH and which specific MX hosts matched OVH Mail's known mail-exchanger patterns.
