Email & DNS
Is your email landing in spam?
Quotes that never arrive. Invoices in the junk folder. Since 2024, Gmail and Yahoo have required senders to prove who they are, and they filter or reject email that doesn’t. We check whether yours does.
- SPF, DKIM and DMARC
- Blocklists
- Domain, certificate and DNS

SPF
A list, published in your DNS, of the servers allowed to send email as your domain.
DKIM
A signature on every message, so receivers can tell it wasn’t changed or faked.
DMARC
Your instructions for email that fails those checks — and reports of who’s sending as you.

Questions, answered
Can you fix my email records?
The report says exactly what each record should say. If you’d like, SilverServers can make the changes with you.
Can you check whether my mail server accepts mail?
We check everything published in your DNS and the blocklists. Live tests against mail servers aren’t part of the report.
