Find out what inbox providers see before you do.

Deliverability fails quietly. Your reports keep showing sends, your reply rate drops, and nothing in the tool tells you why. This reads the same records Gmail reads, in about a second.

Is your mail going to spam?

Type your domain. We read the same DNS records Gmail reads before deciding where to put your email. Since February 2024 three of them are required. Most domains we check are missing at least one, and nobody ever told the owner.

Public DNS only. We store nothing and we do not send you anything unless you ask.

What it reads

Four records, in the order they break.

Live DNS through a public resolver. Nothing is stored and nothing is sent to your domain.

Blocks you outright

MX and SPF

No MX means nobody can reply to you, which filters treat as a warning sign. No SPF, or more than one SPF record, means the check fails before it starts.

Decides enforcement

DMARC

Present or absent, and if present, whether the policy is none, quarantine or reject, whether reports are collected, and what share of mail it applies to.

Survives forwarding

DKIM

We check thirteen selectors used by the common providers. A private selector will not be found, and that is a limitation of the check rather than a fault in your setup.

This is a teaching tool and our reading of standard practice, not advice for your specific setup. Check anything important with your own specialist before you change DNS.
