    About this tool

    The TXT Record & SPF/DKIM Inspector tool fetches all text DNS records for a domain and automatically parses SPF (Sender Policy Framework) mechanisms, DKIM public keys, and DMARC spoofing defense policies.

    How to use

    1. Enter domain name

      Type a domain name like example.com.

    2. Optional DKIM selector

      Specify a DKIM selector (e.g. google or s1) to inspect selector._domainkey.domain.

    3. Review Security Audit

      Check SPF mechanism flags, DMARC enforcement policy, and DKIM key validity.

    Use cases

    Anti-phishing security audit

    Audit SPF, DKIM, and DMARC policies to protect your domain from email spoofing and phishing attacks.

    Domain ownership verification

    View TXT verification tokens for Google Search Console, GitHub, Vercel, or SSL certificates.

    Common mistakes

    Mistake:Exceeding the 10 DNS lookup limit in SPF.

    Fix:Including too many third-party services in SPF can exceed the 10-lookup limit and break email validation.
