About Sender Score

Sender Score gives an IP address or domain a reputation score based on its email sending behaviour. You enter an address on the site and the score comes back in the browser.

The same site groups several related tools. You can look up whether an address is on the Return Path Blocklist and ask to be removed from it, see why messages bounce, check the quality of a contact list, preview subject lines and compare your figures with deliverability benchmarks. It suits people who send newsletters or run a mail server and want to know why messages land in spam.

Strengths

  • Quick reputation score for an IP address or domain
  • Return Path Blocklist lookup and removal request in one place
  • Extra checks for bounces, list quality and subject lines

Limitations

  • Site also promotes Validity's paid email services
  • Score reflects Validity's own data rather than every mailbox provider
