Email Header Analyzer

Check SPF/DKIM/DMARC results and the real sender path.

Paste an email's headers to see if it really came from who it claims, and every server it passed through.

🔒 Headers are analysed in your browser – nothing is uploaded.

How to use the email header analyzer

  1. Open the email and copy its full headers (Gmail: More > Show original).
  2. Paste them in the box.
  3. Click Analyze and review the authentication results and warnings.

Spotting a fake email

If SPF, DKIM or DMARC fail, or the Reply-To address goes to a different domain from the sender, treat the email as suspicious – especially if it asks for payment, passwords or bank changes.

Finding delivery delays

Each hop shows how long the message waited. A big gap points to the server responsible for the delay.
