This tool queries public DNS. It does not ask for an email address.

Enter a domain to find its mail servers.

What an MX record tells you

Mail exchange records tell senders which servers accept email for a domain. This lookup orders the published hosts by their DNS priority and detects a null MX record.

A positive result does not prove that a mailbox exists, that a message will arrive, or that the sender has a good reputation. It only confirms that the domain publishes usable MX records.

A single null MX record means the domain does not accept email. The behavior is defined in RFC 7505.

Use the result before review

Domain checks can catch a mechanical problem while an applicant is still in the intake. Klarefi can combine that result with the submitted documents, cited facts, and required follow-up.
