Professional Email Checker

Is it a real business email or a Gmail made to look official? Check the domain, its age and its mail records.

Is It a Real Business Email?

A professional email uses the company’s own domain, like name@company.com, not a free account like company.support@gmail.com. Real marketplaces, banks and government offices never write to sellers from Gmail, Yahoo or Outlook addresses, so the checker warns you when an “official” email comes from one.

For a business domain, it also shows how long the domain has existed, whether it can receive mail, and whether SPF and DMARC are set. An established business usually has all of these; a new domain with none is a warning sign.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if an email is professional?

It uses the company’s own domain, not Gmail, Yahoo or Outlook.

Can a business use Gmail?

Small businesses sometimes do, but marketplaces, banks and government offices don’t.

Does a professional domain mean the email is safe?

Not always: scammers buy domains too. Check its age and that it matches the company’s official site.
