DKIM record validator

DKIM signs your messages so a receiver can prove they were not altered and came from someone holding your private key. The public key lives in DNS at a selector you choose. Most providers now hand you a CNAME so they can rotate keys without asking you to touch DNS again.

Under active development: The live DNS engine for DKIM validator is currently being built. Test the interactive preview below to explore what it evaluates.

Sample demonstration
  • PassSelector resolvesCNAME → sada.dkim.sadasend.net
  • PassKey typersa
  • PassKey length2048 bits

    Comfortably above the 1024-bit floor.

  • PassProxy statusDNS only

    Proxying a DKIM record breaks the lookup entirely.

Valid 2048-bit key, resolving cleanly through a CNAME.

SadaSend runs these checks continuously on your sending domains, and refuses to send until they pass — so mail Gmail would reject never leaves.

What this checks

  • The selector resolves and returns a key
  • The record parses and the key type is supported
  • Key length meets the 1024-bit minimum, 2048 preferred
  • The record is not proxied — Cloudflare's orange cloud breaks DKIM
