For Developers
Catch the DNS mistake before your users do.
DNS misconfiguration is behind more production incidents than most engineers want to admit. Run a full 72-check audit on any domain in under 5 seconds — before you deploy, after a migration, or any time something starts behaving oddly.

You've migrated your mail infrastructure. The MX records look right. SPF is updated. You ship.
Three days later, a client calls to say their emails are bouncing. Or going to spam. Or never arriving at all. You open your DNS provider, stare at the records, and everything looks fine — because you're looking at what you set, not whether it's working correctly.
Common scenarios DNSSnuff catches:
- SPF record exceeds 10 DNS lookup limit — silently breaks authentication for some recipients
- DMARC set to
p=none— your domain can be spoofed with zero protection - MX record pointing to a CNAME — violates RFC 5321, rejected by some mail servers
- Multiple SPF records — causes immediate authentication failure
- DKIM key under 1024 bits — rejected by modern mail platforms
- Certificate expiring in 7 days — one week to a browser trust warning
- HTTP not redirecting to HTTPS — affecting SEO and security
- Nameservers returning inconsistent answers — intermittent resolution failures
How developers use DNSSnuff
Pre-deployment checklist
Before any infrastructure change that touches DNS, run a before-and-after report. Catch problems before traffic hits the new configuration. Takes 5 seconds.
After a mail infrastructure migration
Migrated to Google Workspace or Microsoft 365? Run a report immediately after updating DNS. Verify SPF, DKIM, and DMARC are all correctly configured before any email is sent.
Debugging deliverability issues
“Our emails are going to spam” is almost always a DNS problem. Run a report, go straight to the Email Authentication section, and you'll usually find the issue in 30 seconds.
CI/CD pipeline Pro — API
Use the DNSSnuff API to run automated DNS health checks as part of your deployment pipeline. Fail a deploy if critical DNS checks don't pass.
Inheriting a messy domain
Take over a domain and need to understand the current state? One report gives you a complete picture — what's configured, what's misconfigured, and what's missing entirely.
