Blacklist checker.

Even perfect SPF, DKIM, and DMARC will not save you if your sending IP is already listed on a DNS-based blacklist (DNSBL). Enter a domain to check its inbound mail server (MX) IP, or paste the IP you actually send from, against Spamhaus ZEN, SpamCop, and Barracuda.

Run the check

01

We resolve the IP

A server-side MX lookup for your domain’s inbound mail server — or the IP you paste. Outbound mail can leave from other IPs, so paste your sending IP to check it. No signup, nothing stored.

02

We query three DNSBLs

Spamhaus ZEN, SpamCop, and Barracuda — the blacklists most receivers actually consult.

03

You get a clear verdict

Listed on any of the three is a fail — receivers reject or spam-folder that IP regardless of SPF/DKIM/DMARC. A query that fails or is refused shows as inconclusive, never as clean.
