A blacklist is a database of IPs and domains flagged for spam or poor sending behavior. Mailbox providers check these lists when deciding whether to deliver mail, so being listed sends your email to spam or blocks it.
Enter your sending IP or domain into the checker and run the scan. The tool checks it against major blacklists and shows which ones, if any, have you listed, so you know where to start delisting.
First fix what caused the listing, such as a volume spike, spam complaints, or hitting spam traps. Then submit a delisting request through the specific blacklist's removal process. Each list has its own steps.
Common causes are sudden volume spikes, high bounce rates, spam complaints, sending to unverified lists, or hitting spam traps. Clean your list and warm up properly, then request delisting once the behavior is corrected.
Yes. Enter your IP or domain, run the scan, and see your status. No account required.
