h8mail 2.0 only requires the python requests module to run.
To install h8mail, run this command in your terminal:
$ pip3 install h8mailAnd that's basically it.
This is the preferred method to install h8mail, as it will always install the most recent stable release.
Please note:
If you don't have pip installed, this Python installation guide can guide
you through the process.
For troubleshooting, check the Troubleshooting section.
--user
The sources for h8mail can be downloaded from the Github repo.
You can either clone the public repository:
$ git clone git:https://github.com/khast3x/h8mailOr download the tarball:
$ curl -OL https://github.com/khast3x/h8mail/tarball/masterNext, decompress the downloaded archive.
Once you have a copy of the source, you can install it with:
$ cd h8mail/
$ python setup.py install
$ h8mail -hOr just running it as a module:
$ cd h8mail/
$ python -m h8mail -h$ docker run -ti kh4st3x00/h8mail -husage: h8mail [-h] -t TARGET_EMAILS [TARGET_EMAILS ...] [--loose]
[-c CONFIG_FILE [CONFIG_FILE ...]] [-o OUTPUT_FILE]
[-bc BC_PATH] [-sk] [-k CLI_APIKEYS [CLI_APIKEYS ...]]
[-lb LOCAL_BREACH_SRC [LOCAL_BREACH_SRC ...]]
[-gz LOCAL_GZIP_SRC [LOCAL_GZIP_SRC ...]] [-sf]
[-ch [CHASE_LIMIT]] [--hide]
Email information and password lookup tool
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-t TARGET_EMAILS [TARGET_EMAILS ...], --targets TARGET_EMAILS [TARGET_EMAILS ...]
Either string inputs or files. Supports email pattern
matching from input or file, filepath globing and
multiple arguments
--loose Allow loose search by disabling email pattern
recognition. Use spaces as pattern seperators
-c CONFIG_FILE [CONFIG_FILE ...], --config CONFIG_FILE [CONFIG_FILE ...]
Configuration file for API keys. Accepts keys from
Snusbase, (WeLeakInfo, Citadel.pw), hunterio
-o OUTPUT_FILE, --output OUTPUT_FILE
File to write CSV output
-bc BC_PATH, --breachcomp BC_PATH
Path to the breachcompilation torrent folder. Uses the
query.sh script included in the torrent.

-sk, --skip-defaults Skips HaveIBeenPwned and HunterIO check. Ideal for
local scans
-k CLI_APIKEYS [CLI_APIKEYS ...], --apikey CLI_APIKEYS [CLI_APIKEYS ...]
Pass config options. Supported format: "K=V,K=V"
-lb LOCAL_BREACH_SRC [LOCAL_BREACH_SRC ...], --local-breach LOCAL_BREACH_SRC [LOCAL_BREACH_SRC ...]
Local cleartext breaches to scan for targets. Uses
multiprocesses, one separate process per file, on
separate worker pool by arguments. Supports file or
folder as input, and filepath globing
-gz LOCAL_GZIP_SRC [LOCAL_GZIP_SRC ...], --gzip LOCAL_GZIP_SRC [LOCAL_GZIP_SRC ...]
Local tar.gz (gzip) compressed breaches to scans for
targets. Uses multiprocesses, one separate process per
file. Supports file or folder as input, and filepath
globing. Looks for 'gz' in filename
-sf, --single-file If breach contains big cleartext or tar.gz files, set
this flag to view the progress bar. Disables
concurrent file searching for stability
-ch [CHASE_LIMIT], --chase [CHASE_LIMIT]
Add related emails from HunterIO to ongoing target
list. Define number of emails per target to chase.
Requires hunter.io private API key
--hide Only shows the first 4 characters of found passwords
to output. Ideal for demonstrations
$ h8mail -t [email protected]$ h8mail -t targets.txt -c config.ini -o pwned_targets.csvQuery a list of targets against local copy of the Breach Compilation, pass API keys for Snusbase from the command line
$ h8mail -t targets.txt -bc ../Downloads/BreachCompilation/ -k "snusbase_url=$snusbase_url,snusbase_token=$snusbase_token"$ h8mail -t targets.txt -bc ../Downloads/BreachCompilation/ -sk$ h8mail -t targets.txt -gz /tmp/Collection1/ -skCheck a cleartext dump for target. Add the next 10 related emails to targets to check. Read keys from cli
$ h8mail -t [email protected] -lb /tmp/4k_Combo.txt -ch 10 -k "hunterio=ABCDE123"h8mail can read keys by using a config.ini file with -c, or by passing keys from the command line directly with -k.
The configuration file format is as follows:
[h8mail]
shodan =
hunterio =
snusbase_url =
snusbase_token =
; leak-lookup_pub = 1bf94ff907f68d511de9a610a6ff9263
leak-lookup_priv =In the above example, you'll notice a Leak-lookup public key, graciously generated for h8mail users. To activate, uncomment the line and make sure to pass to config file. The API can sometimes timeout. If that's the case, simply relaunch.
Keys and their respective values can also be passed from the command line, with the -k option. Format is like so:
$ h8mail -t [email protected] -k "K=V, K=V" "K=V"
- The above instructions assume you are running python3 as default. If unsure, type the following in your terminal.
It should be eitherPython 3.*orPython 2.*:
$ python --version-
If you are running python2 as default :
Make sure you have python3.6+ installed, then replacepythoncommands with explicitpython3commands. -
If you have not set your venvs, you might get a permission error saying
Consider using the --user option or check the permissions.
Simply add --user like so:
$ pip install --user h8mailh8mailuses ANSI color escape characters. Windows doesn't know how to show the colors, and will show gibberish instead.
Fortunately, you can use Cmder, which is an excellent Windows CMD prompt alternative- If you're having trouble with python and pip, chances are you need to add python to your PATH.
pipwill also need to be in yourPATHenvironment variable. - If you're still having trouble with
pip, you can do the following:
# Check python version, should be 3.6+
C:> python --version
# To have python handle installation of pip
C:> python -m ensurepip
# To launch pip as a module
C:> python -m pip install h8mail
# To launch h8mail as a module
C:> python -m h8mail --help- As described for Windows, you might encounter issues with python if your installation is incomplete, or
pip's installation directory is not in your PATH. - If thats the case, you can try invoking
pipandh8mailwith the same command lines as Windows. - Make sure the
pythoncommand refers to Python 3 withpython --version, otherwise replacepythonwithpython3in the instructions. - Basically try this if installed and not executing, check Windows instructions for further examples:
$ python3 -m h8mail -h- Snusbase for being developer friendly
- kodykinzie for making a nice introduction and walktrough article and video on installing and using h8mail
- Leak-Lookup for being developer friendly
- WeLeakInfo for being developer friendly. They are currently migrating API service. I'll update h8mail when available 👍
- h8mail's Pypi integration is strongly based on the work of audreyr's CookieCutter PyPackage
- Logo generated using Hatchful by Shopify

- HashBuster by s0md3v
- Service providers that wish being integrated can send me an email at
k at khast3x dot club(PGP friendly) - h8mail is maintained on my free time. Feedback and war stories are welcomed.
- My code is signed with my Keybase PGP key. You can get it using:
# curl + gpg pro tip: import ktx's keys
curl https://keybase.io/ktx/pgp_keys.asc | gpg --import
# the Keybase app can push to gpg keychain, too
keybase pgp pull ktxIf you wish to stay updated on this project:
