I like the feature that allows you to delete registrations that have not been activated by the authentication emails.

is there a way to take it a step further and deny any potential registrations from free emails providers like gmail, yahoo, hotmail, etc.?

Well, be careful what you wish for - half the world has a gmail address.

Go to Web Application Firewall, Configure WAF, on the Hardening Options tab. First, check the setting in "Filter user registration by email", you want to Block domains. Then put your domain names, each on a separate line, in "Email domains". That will do it.
