Free FCrDNS Checker

Check PTR records and forward-confirmed reverse DNS for mail-server IPs so receiving systems can trust that your MX hosts resolve consistently.

What This Checks

  • PTR records for MX server IP addresses
  • Forward confirmation from PTR hostname back to the same IP
  • Mismatch warnings that can affect deliverability
  • FCrDNS context in the full quick-scan result

Common Fix Path

  • Set PTR records with the IP owner or hosting provider
  • Point PTR hostnames back to the original mail-server IP
  • Avoid generic or unrelated reverse-DNS hostnames for production mail
  • Keep MX, A/AAAA, and PTR naming consistent across clustered mail servers
