Really nice tool, also like the ‘Full Page Test’!

But for the DNSSEC test it maby would be better to say that it is not activated if the domain does not have any DS records insted of saying ‘Everything is fine.’?

And a check box for ‘Save test’ like the other tests have would be appreciated.

In reply to Jay. @Jay: You should be able to see that in the advanced view (the other tab).

Excellent idea. I’ve used various implementations of these over the years.

Unfortunately, some of the warnings aren’t very specific and thus not very useful in resolving problems. For example:

—————————
Host did not accept hostmaster@example.com as SMTP recipient.

The mail server did no accept mail to the recipient address. This is probably due to an unknown address.
—————————

Which host?
