How do i check if my email is on a blacklist?

Are you worried that your email address might have been blacklisted? This is a legitimate concern as many online services use blacklists to detect and prevent spam activities. Fortunately, there are a few simple steps you can take to check if your email is on a blacklist.

The first step is to use an online blacklist checker. There are several websites that allow you to enter your email address and run a search against known blacklists. If your email is found on any of the lists then the website will tell you which blacklist it was found on. Some of the more popular ones include MX Toolbox, Emailrep.io, MXToolbox, Blacklist Monitor and DNSStuff.

The second step is to contact the blacklist owner directly and ask them if they have your email address on their list. Each service has a different procedure but usually they will allow you to contact them through their website or via an online form. The owner will then be able to review the information in order to make sure that your email address hasn't been blacklisted by mistake.

Finally, if both steps fail it may be worth contacting your provider and asking them if they keep records of past problems with emails being blocked or rejected due to being blacklisted. They may also be able to provide further advice on what else can be done if they verify that your email address has indeed been listed on one or more blacklists.
