DNS Lookup
See A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, NS, TXT, SOA, CAA and more — with TTLs, plus SPF, DMARC and DKIM checks and provider detection.
A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, NS, TXT, SOA, CAA, SRV and PTR records in one report, with TTLs and priorities, queried live from public resolvers.
Instantly see whether SPF, DMARC (and its policy) and DKIM are in place, so your mail lands in the inbox instead of the spam folder.
We recognise the DNS host behind the name servers and the email service behind the MX records — Cloudflare, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365 and more.
Good to know
A few answers to the questions we hear most about DNS records, propagation and email authentication.
DNS (the Domain Name System) is the directory that turns a name like example.com into the addresses and services behind it. A DNS lookup asks the public resolvers for every record type published for a domain — A and AAAA (web server IPs), CNAME (aliases), MX (mail servers), NS (name servers), TXT (SPF, DKIM, DMARC and verification strings), SOA, CAA, SRV and PTR — and shows you exactly what the rest of the internet sees right now.
TTL stands for Time To Live: the number of seconds a resolver may cache a record before asking the authoritative name servers again. A 5-minute TTL (300 s) means changes spread within minutes; a 24-hour TTL can take a full day. Lower the TTL a day before you migrate a site or mail server, then raise it again once everything is stable to reduce DNS traffic.
This tool queries public resolvers (Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 and Google 8.8.8.8), which return whatever is currently cached and propagated — not the zone file in your control panel. After you edit a record, old answers keep circulating until every cache’s TTL expires, and some ISPs cache longer than they should. If you only just made a change, wait for the TTL to pass and run the lookup again; if the mismatch persists, double-check that the domain’s NS records point at the name servers you edited.
They are the three TXT-record checks mailbox providers use to decide whether your email is genuine. SPF lists the servers allowed to send mail for your domain. DKIM adds a cryptographic signature to each message, verified against a public key published under a selector (for example default._domainkey). DMARC ties both together and tells receivers what to do when a message fails — p=none just reports, p=quarantine sends it to spam, p=reject blocks it. Having all three set up correctly is the single biggest factor in landing in the inbox rather than the junk folder.
If your domain uses OrangeHost name servers, log in to your client area, open Domains → Manage Domain and use the DNS Management tab to add, edit or delete A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT and SRV records — changes are live within a few minutes. Hosting customers can also use the cPanel Zone Editor. If the domain points at third-party name servers (Cloudflare, your registrar…), edit the records there instead, or switch the name servers to ours to manage everything in one place. Our support team is available 24/7 if you need a hand.
