Message Validation
Send a message to the following services, where it will be evaluated according to several authentication systems.
For message reflectors, send an email message from the domain you wish to check, and a report will be sent back.
Please note that some of these services might not work as intended or may have been removed as an option.
- Message reflector: autoreply@dmarctest.org at dmarctest.org – DMARC reports sent every 5 minutes
- Message reflector: check-auth@verifier.port25.com by Port25 (instructions – DK, DKIM, Sender-ID, SPF)
- Message reflector: checkmyauth@auth.returnpath.net by Return Path (DK, DKIM, DMARC, Sender-ID, SPF)
