Use this when the user asks why their emails go to spam or wants a full deliverability check of a domain. Runs SPF, DKIM (finds the selector on its own), DMARC, blacklist and MX checks in one call and returns pass, warning or fail for each, an overall result, and the fixes to apply in priority order with help links. Takes about 10 seconds. mailX never changes DNS.
Parametersdomain_namerequireddkim_selector
Use this when the user asks whether a domain's SPF record is valid, which servers may send email for a domain, or why SPF fails. Returns the live SPF record, a pass/fail status and a fix suggestion.
Parametersdomain_namerequired
Use this when the user wants to verify DKIM for a domain. Pass the DKIM selector if known (for example google for Google Workspace, selector1 or selector2 for Microsoft 365). If the selector is unknown, omit it: mailX then tries common selectors and returns the ones it finds. Returns the published key and its status. A miss on common selectors does not prove DKIM is absent.
Parametersdomain_namerequireddkim_selector
Use this when the user asks about DMARC, spoofing protection, or what happens to emails that fail authentication. Returns the live DMARC record, its policy and a fix suggestion.
Parametersdomain_namerequired
Use this when the user asks about BIMI or showing a brand logo next to their emails in inboxes. Returns the live BIMI record, the logo URL it declares, and a fix suggestion.
Parametersdomain_namerequired
dmarc_generate
DMARC Generator
Use this when the user needs a DMARC record. Returns the record name, value and type ready to publish. mailX does not publish it.
Parametersemailrequireddomain_namerequireddmarc_policyrequired
spf_generate
SPF Generator
Use this when the user needs a new SPF record for their email provider. Returns a TXT record ready to publish, or explains what to set up instead when the provider does not need a root SPF include. mailX does not publish it.
Parametersproviderrequireddomain_namerequiredhard_fail_booleanrequired
Use this only when the user explicitly asks to test an SMTP login for a mail account they control and provides its credentials. Connects to the SMTP server and reports whether connection, encryption and authentication succeed. If from_email and to_email are both given, it also sends one test email. Credentials are not stored.
Parametershostrequiredportrequiredpasswordrequiredto_emailusernamerequiredencryptionrequiredfrom_email
Use this only when the user explicitly asks to test an IMAP login for a mailbox they control and provides its credentials. Connects to the IMAP server and reports whether connection, encryption and authentication succeed. Credentials are not stored.
Parameterspasswordrequiredusernamerequiredimap_hostrequiredimap_portrequiredimap_encryptionrequired
Use this when the user needs the outgoing mail (SMTP) server settings for an email provider or sending service, such as Gmail, Outlook, Microsoft 365, Zoho, Amazon SES or SendGrid. Returns the host, ports with encryption, what to use to log in, and the provider's setup guide. Never asks for the user's credentials.
Parametersprovider_namerequired
Use this when the user needs the incoming mail (IMAP) server settings for an email provider, such as Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, iCloud or Zoho. Returns the host, ports with encryption and the provider's setup guide. Never asks for the user's credentials.
Parametersimap_provider_namerequired
blacklist_check
Blacklist Check
Use this when the user suspects their domain is blacklisted or blocked. Checks the domain against major DNS blocklists and returns the result for each list.
Parametersdomain_namerequired
Use this when the user wants to know which mail servers receive email for a domain. Returns the domain's live MX records with their priorities.
Parametersdomain_namerequired
Use this when the user wants to see a domain's TXT records, for example to find verification tokens or check what SPF or other policies are published. Returns all live TXT records.
Parametersdomain_namerequired
Use this when the user wants to know whether a hostname is an alias of another one, for example to verify DKIM or tracking CNAMEs. Returns the live CNAME target.
Parametersdomain_namerequired
Use this when the user wants the reverse DNS (PTR) of an IP address, for example to check a sending server's reverse DNS. Returns the hostname the IP resolves to.
Parametersip_addressrequired
Use this when the user wants every DNS record for a domain in one view (A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, NS, TXT, SOA). Returns the live records grouped by type.
