MX Record Lookup

Show the mail-exchange records on any domain — the servers that accept inbound email. MX records are the foundation of email delivery; missing or misconfigured MX is the most common cause of "mail to your domain just disappears." This tool returns each MX host with its priority value.

Resolves MX records via public DNS. No login required.

Reading the result

Priority determines order: lower number = higher priority. Senders try the lowest-priority host first; if it's unreachable, they fall back to the next. Most domains list 2-5 MX records for redundancy.

Common patterns: Google Workspace points all priorities to smtp.google.com or aspmx.l.google.com + four ALT hosts. Microsoft 365 points to <tenant>-com.mail.protection.outlook.com.
