Key Features
- SPF Record Validation: Checks the Sender Policy Framework (SPF) records of a domain to verify authorized email senders and reduce the risk of spoofing.
- DKIM Record Retrieval: Searches for and validates DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail) records, ensuring that emails from the domain are properly signed and tamper-free.
- DMARC Record Check: Fetches and validates DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance) records to help prevent email spoofing and ensure authenticity.
- PTR Record Lookup: Retrieves and validates reverse DNS (PTR) records for IP addresses to confirm the legitimacy of the email server.
- Scoring and Recommendations: Provides an overall score of the domain's email deliverability readiness, along with actionable improvements to enhance email security.
Use Cases
- Email Deliverability Testing: Assess domain readiness to improve the likelihood of successful email delivery.
- Fraud Prevention: Ensure SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records are configured correctly to prevent email spoofing and phishing.
- Security Compliance: Confirm that email domains follow best practices in email security and server configuration.
The Email Intelligence API is designed to provide an extensive analysis of email addresses, helping businesses and developers gain deeper insights into the emails they encounter. This API validates email addresses, checks their domain's DNS records, detects disposable or temporary email addresses, and determines if the domain belongs to a government or educational institution.
