When using Truemail as my main engine for validating emails I found that every time I validate Yahoo emails the results are always valid/true. After I try to debug the problems, turn out that Yahoo accepts all email addresses in the RCPT TO section, so even if the email doesn't exist the return from the Yahoo MX server will always be OK (250). After I continued to the DATA section in the SMTP session the Yahoo MX server just returned the mailbox not exist message.
Here is the detail:

So is there any workaround for this problem? I tried various validators that are available online and the result is valid.
Is the only way is just to do/continue the SMTP session until the DATA section? If it is, doesn't it will send the message to the target email if the email is valid?
