MxToolbox Tools
This article details the various tools MxToolbox provides to users.
SuperTool
On the MxToolbox homepage, our SuperTool is available to all users. This extensive setup offers all of your MX record, DNS, blacklist, and SMTP diagnostics in one integrated tool.
Simply input a domain name, an IP Address, or a hostname. Provided links in the results will guide you to other relevant tools and information. Plus, you will have a chronological history of your results.
If you already know exactly what you want, you can force a particular test or lookup. For example, "blacklist: 127.0.0.2" will do a blacklist lookup.
