Tool guide

Understanding Email & Domain Diagnostics

Email delivery depends on DNS. This diagnostic gives a clear view of the core records that decide whether a domain can send and receive mail reliably.

What this tool does

It checks MX routing, A/AAAA records, nameservers, SPF, DMARC, and common DKIM selectors for a domain.

Who it helps

  • Business owners whose contact forms or mailboxes are failing
  • Administrators setting up hosted email
  • Developers verifying DNS after a migration

Usage instructions

Enter the root domain. If you know a custom DKIM selector, add it before running the check.

Understanding the output

Missing MX records affect receiving mail. Missing SPF, DKIM, or DMARC can reduce trust and increase spam placement. Duplicate SPF records should be fixed immediately.

Why it matters for hosting

Mail DNS often breaks during hosting moves. Use this tool before and after changing nameservers or moving email to UnderHost, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, or another provider.
