About MTA-STS: MTA Strict Transport Security tells mail servers to only use TLS when delivering to your domain, preventing downgrade attacks.

How to use the MTA-STS Checker

Check MTA-STS policy for your domain to ensure encrypted email transport. Enter the domain, hostname, IP address, selector, or record value requested by the tool, then run the check to see the current public configuration. Use the result to confirm whether the domain is resolving correctly, whether email authentication is aligned, or whether a visible trust issue needs follow-up.

Step 1

Enter the domain or value you want to inspect.

Step 2

Review the returned records, warnings, and status signals.

Step 3

Fix the DNS, hosting, SSL, or email setting, then retest.

What to check next

A single lookup rarely tells the whole story. For production websites, verify DNS, SSL, email authentication, blacklist status, and public security headers together before making a launch, migration, or deliverability decision. Common next checks after this page include DMARC Checker, SPF Checker, DNS Checker.
