SMTP TLS Checker


This free online service analyzes the configuration of the inbound email servers for any domain with respect to the quality of their support for SMTP TLS.
SMTP TLS
TLS, short for Transport Layer Security, is a protocol used for establishing a secure connection between two computers across the Internet. As a secure and HIPAA compliant email provider we give our clients the best of security options, and TLS is a very important security tool. Our system gives our users the option to use TLS when connecting their email program (e.g, Outlook, Apple Mail, etc.) to our incoming and outgoing email servers for the purpose of encrypting the connection itself.
Enforced use of SMTP TLS is one of several methods that LuxSci SecureLine™ email encryption can use to ensure secure email delivery. In particular, LuxSci SecureLine™ allows you to leverage TLS for secure email delivery, if you choose, via:
- Dynamically determining what recipients support TLS, so you do not have to pre-configure anything.
- Automatic fall-back to other email encryption modes when TLS is not available, so you don’t have to configure anything.
- Allowing you to optionally specify which domains or recipients are OK or not OK for TLS-Only email delivery.
- Allowing you to optionally NOT deliver email to people who do not support TLS, instead of using other encryption methods (good for email marketing in a compliance context such as HIPAA compliant email marketing.).
- Access to an API where you can check domains for their TLS support before you ever send email messages.
- Access to an API for sending secure email messages, in case you prefer to not use SMTP directly.
