Outil DNS gratuit

Recherche DNS inverse (PTR)

Trouvez le nom d'hôte associé à une adresse IP et vérifiez qu'il renvoie bien vers la même IP (DNS inverse confirmé).

Why reverse DNS matters

Mail servers check the PTR record of the IP address sending to them. Without a matching, forward‑confirmed PTR, your email is much more likely to be rejected or marked as spam. Reverse DNS also makes logs and traceroutes easier to read.

Who controls the PTR record?

Whoever owns the IP address, not the domain owner. For a VPS, set it in your hosting control panel. For a home connection, ask your ISP. Many do not allow custom PTR records on residential lines.

Frequently asked questions

What is forward-confirmed reverse DNS?

The PTR name resolves back, through its A or AAAA record, to the original IP. Mail servers treat this as a basic sign of legitimacy.

Can one IP have several PTR records?

It is allowed but not recommended. Use a single PTR that matches your mail server’s HELO name.
