Testing Your Email Authentication

So you poured through every resource you can find, you tested everything to the best of your knowledge, you're positive you have your email set up correctly.

But how do you really know you have everything set up correctly?

"The answer is simple," all you have to do is send an email to "mailtest@unlocktheinbox.com" and it will autorespond within minutes with a complete email analysis, to the "RFC5322.from" address also known as the "From Address". If you want the test to respond to the "RFC5321.from" also known as the "ReturnPath or Mail From", send an email to "mailtest2@unlocktheinbox.com". If you want the test to respond to the first recipient on the "Reply-To" address, send an email to "mailtest3@unlocktheinbox.com".

If you fail on any of the checks, it will let you know and provide you useful information to help you make corrections. If you need clarification, just post a message on our forums.

Below is an example of the email you will receive if everything passes. At this point you can create an account and follow the instructions here to earn your Trusted Senders Site Seal.

If you have trouble passing, please view our Email Authentication Knowledge Base.

Note: If "mailtest@unlocktheinbox.com" does not auto respond within 5 minutes, you might be on our internal blacklist. If you find your email addresses listed, simply remove yourself and repeat the test.
