add a new section in advanced settings:
if checked, use Sendgrids Email validation and if the API returns with a potential spam email, the booking should "require confirmation"

Hi @PeerRich. I am interested in working on this, but to use the api, you need to have a email pro or premium account. Any guidance on accessing the API for contributors? Additionally, I've explored Abstract API validator as a potential alternative.
@PeerRich can i work on this feature?
@ashu565 feel free to raise a PR with the issue linked to it, you can work on this issue without being assigned P.S. Making sure that no one else is working in this task with you at the same time would be much appreciated :)

@Amit91848 what specific endpoint or api are you talking about, can you give some more context around this?
@Ryukemeister Sendgrids Email validation api requires you to have email pro or premium account (Email Validation is only available for Email API Pro and Premier plans, this is not available for reseller accounts.). Additionally, SendGrid has stringent criteria for account creation, and I encountered difficulties in signing up to obtain the API keys

@Amit91848 I don't really have much knowledge about how email validation works in sendgrid. Lemme check that out first and I'll let know you about any workarounds for email validation without a pro account. For the time being do you mind looking into any other issues?

@amankumarm I tried looking into getting api keys for email validation with a freebie account but wasn't able to. Don't know any workarounds myself but will ask someone from the team if they have any ideas about it.
@Ryukemeister, is there any way to just replace sendgrid and use resend for email notifications.

@amankumarm that's definitely a possible solution but that comes with a lot of questions on it's own. Like how much effort and time would that take and also if its worth replacing sendgrid with resend? So I don't know what an ideal solution would look like at the moment but i've posted a message about this in our internal chat on threads, will get back to you as soon as I have a solution.
