How It Works

1. API Request (getDomainList): The script first asks the API which domains are currently available (e.g., 1secmail.com, esiix.com, etc.). This prevents the script from using a dead domain.
2. Construction: It creates a random username (e.g., x7z2k9l) and combines it with a domain to create a full email address.
3. The Loop (Polling): The script enters an infinite loop (while True) that checks the inbox every 5 seconds.
4. Parsing: When a new email arrives (detected by an ID we haven't seen before), it fetches the full content using the readMessage endpoint and prints it to the console.
