## What it is
h8mail is a Python CLI tool for email OSINT and password breach hunting. It queries breach services like HaveIBeenPwned and Hunter.io, or searches local breach files such as Collection#1, and can chase related emails.

## Use cases
- check if an email has been in a data breach
- find passwords for email addresses in breach dumps
- search local breach compilation files for targets
- discover related emails for an OSINT investigation
- extract emails from web pages and URLs
- bulk lookup of email addresses from a file

## When to choose
- you need a quick CLI for email breach lookups
- you want to search local breach dumps like Collection#1
- you want to combine multiple breach APIs in one tool
- you are doing OSINT recon on email targets

## When to avoid
- you need a GUI or web dashboard
- you want continuous breach monitoring rather than one-off lookups
- you need a supported library API rather than a CLI
- you require actively maintained tooling with recent releases
