Findings

Matches of fixed checks, with the text they matched.

  • The server marks "check_domain" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Check an IPv4 address against about 18 IP blacklists (SpamCop, Barracuda, UCEPROTECT, PSBL, Mailspike, ...) or a domain against domain blacklists. Each list is verified with its test entries first, so lists that refuse public resolvers (such as Spamhaus) are reported as unavailable rather than clean.

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Run every email-authentication check on a domain (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MX, MTA-STS, TLS-RPT, BIMI, plus domain and mail-server blacklists) and return a score out of 100, per-check findings and a prioritized fix list. Use this first when asked whether a domain is set up correctly to send email.

    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Look up and validate a single email DNS record for a domain, explaining each tag. record is one of spf, dmarc, dkim, bimi, mta-sts, tls-rpt, mx. SPF counts the 10-lookup limit; DMARC checks policy, reporting and external report authorization; DKIM sizes the key; MTA-STS fetches the policy file and compares it with the MX hosts; BIMI checks the logo (SVG Tiny PS) and mark certificate.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Scan an email subject and body (plain text or HTML) for spam-trigger phrases by category, ALL-CAPS, exclamation runs, emoji, URL shorteners and image-heavy HTML. Returns a low/medium/high risk reading and, optionally, a rule-based rewrite.

    • The name "analyze_headers" says "analyze": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Parse raw email headers: the Received delivery path with per-hop delays, the receiving server's SPF/DKIM/DMARC verdicts, DMARC alignment of the From domain, DKIM signatures, the sending IP, and bulk-sender requirements such as one-click unsubscribe.

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
