loose search of a target file

[Flakke123]

• h8mail version: Version 2.3 - "SEASON_PRIMER"
• Python version: Python 3.7.4
• Operating System: Kali

Description

I tryd to check a list of nicknames that saved in a textfile (.txt)

What I Did

h8mail -t targets.txt --loose
 but h8mail uses the filename as a target itself

`[>] h8mail is up to date
[>] Targets:
['targets.txt']
[~] Removing duplicates
[~] Target factory started for targets.txt
[~] HIBP free tier will stop working on the 2019/08/18
[~] You can already use a purchased API key using h8mail (config file)
[!] Could not contact HIBP for targets.txt
401
[!] hunter.io (pubic API) error: targets.txt
list index out of range
[!] Could not contact emailrep for targets.txt`

but i can´t drop the "--loose" command because the file contains no email adresses

what am i doing wrong?
thanks for help in advance!

i used the workaround to copy all (something like40) nicknames directly to the commandline

Currently AFK, re-opening this issue to check it out later.
The --loose option is typically used with local search, such as -lb or -gz.

Fixed in 2.5.3
