Frequently asked questions
Everything about how the checker, monitoring, and billing work. Still stuck? support@emailposture.com.
What does Email Posture check?
We read your domain's public DNS to assess the records that decide whether someone can impersonate you over email: SPF, DKIM, DMARC, DNSSEC, and MTA-STS. Each result is graded and explained in plain English with the exact fix.
Is the checker really free?
Yes. The instant check requires no signup and no payment. It performs read-only public DNS lookups, so there's nothing to install and nothing is changed on your domain.
Is it safe to check a domain? What do you store?
Completely safe — we only query public DNS records, the same data any mail server can see. One-off checks are not stored or tied to your identity. If you subscribe to monitoring, we store only what's needed to alert you (your email, the domain, and check results).
Can I check a domain I don't own?
You can run the free read-only check on any domain — it only reads public records. Continuous monitoring is different: it only activates after you prove you control the domain, so nobody can use Email Posture to watch domains that aren't theirs.
How does monitoring work?
After you confirm your email and verify control of your domain with a one-time DNS record, we re-check your email-authentication posture every day and email you the moment anything changes or weakens — so a silent regression never goes unnoticed.
How much does monitoring cost?
Monitoring is $12/month per domain, billed monthly through Stripe. You can cancel anytime.
How do I cancel?
Cancel anytime from the billing portal linked on your manage page, or by using the unsubscribe link in any alert email. Cancellation stops alerts immediately and ends billing.
Do you offer refunds?
Except where required by law, payments are non-refundable, but you can cancel at any time to prevent future charges. See our Terms for details.
