Check an email address
An email from your bank, a parcel service or your boss, and the address looks odd. Paste it. You see what can be said about the address and what speaks against it.
Enter the sender address
A sender address can be forged. Even a genuine address does not prove the email came from there.
What happens to the address
- The address goes to our server and is checked there. We do not store it. It travels in the body of the request, so it appears in no access log.
- Only the domain goes to others: as a DNS query and, for the registration date, to the registry. The part before the @ never leaves us.
- To compare with our own findings we compute a checksum of the address. Addresses are held there as checksums only.
