So you have heard about senderscore but you think it’s tedious work to go to the website and log in and/or verifying the captcha..
Don’t worry you can the same way as checking dns blacklists (DNSBL) you can check your score from the command line.
Just reverse your IP and do a dns lookup, like this:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 |
nslookup 4.3.2.1.score.senderscore.com This is a success response: ------------------------------ Non-authoritative answer: Name: 4.3.2.1.score.senderscore.com Address: 127.0.4.99 This is a error response: ------------------------------ *** 4.3.2.1.score.senderscore.com: Non-existent domain |
Unlike the DNSBL lookup where you where listed if you got a response the score is part of the Address response. So in the exemple above my score is 99.
You take the last part of the response address and that is your score. When you get Non-existent domain as an answer your IP hasn’t sent out enough email for senderscore to do a measure.
This can be done with dig exactly the same way as done in this post about DNSBL
Update:
This is updated twice a day at ~12:00 GMT and ~22:00 GMT so no need to look more than once after these times.
