DNS Lookup
Look up a domain’s DNS records and email authentication — A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, SOA, CAA, plus SPF and DMARC — with issues and fixes for common misconfigurations.
What this tool checks
- Address records — A (IPv4), AAAA (IPv6) and CNAME.
- Mail routing — MX records, sorted by priority.
- Infrastructure — NS (nameservers), SOA and CAA (certificate authority authorisation).
- Email authentication — SPF (with a 10-lookup-limit count) and DMARC (with policy strength).
Common problems and fixes
Two SPF records
RFC 7208 allows exactly one. A second record makes SPF fail (PERMERROR) for all your mail. Merge every sending source into one v=spf1 record.
SPF over 10 lookups
Each include:, a, mx and redirect= costs a lookup; over ten, SPF errors out. Flatten or prune.
DMARC set to p=none
p=none only monitors. After reviewing your aggregate (rua) reports, move top=quarantine then p=reject to actually stop spoofing.
FAQ
Which resolver do you use?
The server’s system resolver with a short timeout. Multi-resolver propagation comparison is on the roadmap.
Can I paste an email address or URL?
Yes — we extract the domain from an email address or URL automatically.

Frequently asked questions
▸ ▾ Which DNS records does this show?
A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, NS, SOA and CAA, plus parsed SPF and DMARC, DNSSEC status and the HTTPS/SVCB record.
▸ ▾ How long do DNS changes take to appear?
It depends on each record's TTL. With a low TTL (e.g. 300s) changes show within minutes; a high TTL can take up to a day. Lower the TTL before a planned change.
