What this tool does not do / Limits

This tool only reads the policy text you paste. It does not fetch a policy from a domain, does not check DNS records and does not verify that a mail server enforces the policy.

Frequently asked questions

Does this check my domain live?

No. It only analyses the text you paste here. Nothing is fetched from your domain or any mail server.

What does enforce mean here?

It is the mode value written in the pasted policy. This tool reports what the text says; it does not prove a server follows it.
