email.com MX records
email.com publishes 2 MX hosts, all at priority 10, so senders spread mail across them.
email.com SPF record
The record on 5 November 2026 was v=spf1 redirect=_spf.mail.com.
In plain terms, it delegates to _spf.mail.com. The top level uses 1 DNS-querying term; SPF allows 10 in total including nested includes (RFC 7208 §4.6.4).
email.com DMARC policy
The record is v=DMARC1; p=quarantine; rua=mailto:[email protected].
p=quarantine asks receivers to send failing mail to spam.
Aggregate reports go to mail.com, so the domain's owner sees who sends mail as @email.com.
What that means for you: if a contact gives an @email.com address and you send to them, nothing changes. But never put an @email.com address in the From line of mail sent through your own tool or ESP. It can't pass DMARC for email.com, and this policy tells receivers to junk it.
Domains on the same mail servers as email.com
61 other domains published exactly the same MX hosts and SPF record as email.com on 5 November 2026: accountant.com, activist.com, adexec.com, africamail.com, alumni.com, artlover.com, asia.com, australiamail.com, berlin.com, brazilmail.com, brew-master.com, cheerful.com and 49 more. Mail to any of them lands on the same servers.
email.com shares mx00.mail.com and mx01.mail.com with mail.com. When we tested those servers for mail.com on 12 October 2026, the result was: Hard to verify. The server refuses connections it does not trust before answering about the mailbox.
Can you verify @email.com addresses?
Our checker treats @email.com like any domain: syntax, MX, disposable and role checks first, then a made-up address to rule out a catch-all, then your address at RCPT TO, disconnecting without sending. We have not tested @email.com itself, but its mail goes to the same servers as mail.com, so expect @email.com results to follow the pattern described there. Each result carries its own reason.
Cleaning a list with these addresses
DNS tells you where mail goes, not whether one person's mailbox still exists. For a list, run the whole file through a verifier before you send: invalid rows come out, risky rows (catch-all, unknown, refused) go in their own segment, and valid rows are safe to mail.
