Today, I’m proud to announce the re-launch of Wombatmail! Here I’ve consolidated all of my different tools together (and create some new ones), and do some other fun new stuff, and that will all be centralized under Wombatmail. Over at www.wombatmail.com you will find: Wombatmail Tools: I’ve moved over most of my DNS tools from XNND, and they’ll now live here on Wombatmail. It’s a great place to quickly look up a domain’s MX record, DMARC record, BIMI record, and more. If you poke around, you might find a funky or unique tool here in there, like the DKIM selectors/key search or multi-public DNS server checks to monitor a delegation/caching issue. Nothing too fancy, just simple tools to help you do simple checks when needed, all me and all free. I’ll link you to useful tools from other, too, as needed. Wombatmail Data: One of my “fun with data” projects where I’ve taken the top 10 million domains, appended MX records
I’m not big on holidays but I will use this as an excuse to say THANK YOU to everyone who has written to me with positive feedback, kind words, job leads, consulting opportunities, chances to chat, and more. I really do appreciate you and it speaks well to what a great community of people I am lucky to be a part of. Thank you again and have a happy and safe holiday (and successful BFCM launches).
Hey, I’ll come right out and say it. I’m looking for a job! Are you hiring? As you (hopefully) know from reading my blog, I know deliverability pretty well. I spend a lot of time training and consulting — guiding clients through changes in the evolving deliverability landscape, how to prepare for deliverability success during BFCM, how best to warm up new IPs and domains, how to address spam folder issues, and so much more! For fifteen years I was director of deliverability for Salesforce Marketing Cloud (formerly ExactTarget), leading a team of consultants that jumped into issues either as an escalation up from support, or an escalation down from management. A big part of my role involved directly connecting with clients to help them understand deliverability best practices and solve inbox woes. I did a bit of product management and built a tool or two myself, too. For the
That’s right, 21 years ago (yesterday), is more or less when Spam Resource first hit teh interwebs. I invite you to celebrate with a beverage of your choice.

(And by the way, Chicago, coincidentally, is not quite the hellhole that some dumb guy portrayed it as recently.)
Hey, just a quick reminder that I compile my Spam Resource blog content into a weekly email newsletter that sends out every Monday morning. Each week it contains highlights from the past week of posts, and an article or two from the twenty years of archives I’ve got up in here. God forbid I ever have free time again, I’ll also start throwing in email exclusive content, like I’ve been threatening to do forever. So if you want to be sure never to miss out on my “valuable” blog and email content, feel free to sign up for my email newsletter here. It’s sponsored by nobody except me, with the caveat that you’ll hear me talking about what I’m working on at work from time to time. And if you’re email technology savvy, you can find endless hours of fun by pulling apart the email headers and telling me what…
