Free Email Tools for Business Email Health

Quick, plain-English guides to the checks that keep business email reaching the inbox and safe from spoofing — SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MX, blacklist, SMTP and TLS. Automated checkers are on the way; for results today, a specialist will audit your email by hand, free.

Information:

Automated checkers coming soon

Each tool below explains the check and what a healthy result looks like. The instant, automated versions are in development — until then, request a free manual audit and a specialist will run the checks for you, in plain English. We never ask for passwords and we do not store anything you type.

Eight checks

Pick the email check you need.

Each tool covers one part of a healthy email setup. Start with the one that matches your worry — or request a free audit and we will run them all.

  • SPF Checker

    Review your SPF record, includes and lookup count to make sure only your real senders can use your domain.

  • DKIM Checker

    Understand your DKIM selector, public key and signing status so receivers can verify your mail is genuinely yours.

  • DMARC Checker

    Check your DMARC policy, alignment and reporting so impersonation of your domain can be stopped — safely.

  • MX Checker

    See how your MX records route incoming mail, their priorities, and the misconfigurations that cause bounces.

  • Blacklist Checker

    Find out whether your IP or domain is on a major blocklist and why it puts your deliverability at risk.

  • SMTP Test

    Understand SMTP connectivity, TLS on the connection, and the sending failures that stop mail leaving your server.

  • TLS Checker

    Review your mail server certificate, its expiry and encryption so mail moves over secure, verified connections.

  • Email Header Analyzer

    Read an email header in plain English — authentication results, routing, delays and the clues behind spam placement.

Why email checks matter

Small misconfigurations quietly cost you customers.

Most email problems are invisible until they are expensive — a quote that lands in spam, a domain that gets spoofed, a server nobody is watching. A few simple checks surface the risk before it costs you anything.

Reach the inbox

SPF, DKIM, DMARC and a clean reputation are what stand between your invoices and the spam folder. Get them right and your mail lands.

Stop impersonation

Without DMARC at enforcement, anyone can send mail that looks like you. The right records make spoofing your domain far harder.

Catch failures early

MX, TLS, SMTP and blacklist checks reveal the quiet faults that become outages — so you find out before an angry customer does.

Prove you are set up right

Clear, documented checks let you answer "is your email configured correctly?" with evidence, not a guess — useful for clients and insurers.

Understand the moving parts

Email is many small systems working together. These guides show how each one fits, in plain English, with no jargon to learn.

Know your next step

A check tells you what is wrong; our specialists tell you what to do about it — and can fix it end-to-end if you want it handled.

When to request expert help

A check shows the symptom. A specialist fixes the cause.

These tools help you understand your email. When the stakes are real, hand it to people who do nothing but email — here is how to tell when that is now.

  • Your mail is landing in spam

    If important email keeps disappearing into junk, the cause is usually authentication or reputation — we diagnose it at the root and fix it for good.

  • Someone is spoofing your domain

    Impersonation and business email compromise are the most expensive email incidents. We move DMARC to enforcement safely so spoofing stops without breaking real mail.

  • You found a problem you cannot read

    A failing record, a blacklist entry or a header full of jargon — bring it to us and we translate it into plain English and a clear next step.

  • Email is down or breached right now

    If mail has stopped, your domain is blacklisted, or an account is compromised, do not wait on a tool — request emergency support and a specialist gets on it.

Honest about what these tools are

These pages are educational guides plus a free human audit — not live, automated checkers (yet). They never ask for passwords or credentials, and nothing you type is stored.

Want all of these checked for you — free?

A specialist runs every check by hand as part of a free Email Audit, then tells you plainly what is healthy, what is at risk, and what to do next. No jargon, no obligation, no passwords required.

Tool questions

Answers, in plain English.

Are these tools free to use?

Yes. The guides are free to read, and the manual audit that backs them is free too — a specialist reviews your email setup and explains what they find, with no obligation.

Do the tools run a live check right now?

Not yet. Automated, instant checkers are in development as part of our Email Operations Center roadmap. Today, each page explains the check and what a healthy result looks like, and a specialist runs it for you by hand if you request a free audit.

Will you ever ask for my email password?

No. None of these tools ask for passwords or credentials, and they never will. A legitimate email health check never needs your password — anyone asking for one should be treated with suspicion.

Do you store what I type into the forms?

No. The forms on these pages are previews of the coming checkers. They do not submit anywhere, run a live lookup, or store anything you enter.

Which check should I start with?

If your mail is going to spam, start with SPF, DKIM and DMARC. If you are worried about impersonation, start with DMARC. If mail is bouncing or not arriving, start with MX and blacklist. Unsure? Request a free audit and we run them all.

Can you fix the problems these checks find?

Yes. Finding the issue is the easy part — our Email Security, Email Deliverability and Managed Email Support services put it right and keep it right, owned end-to-end.

What if my email is down or breached right now?

Do not wait on a tool. Request Emergency Email Support and a specialist will contain the incident, restore service, and tell you plainly what happened.

Do I need to be technical to use these?

No. Every guide is written for a busy, non-technical owner first, with the technical detail one layer down for those who want it. Translating the jargon is our job, not yours.
