The Domains tab is where you add, view, check, and remove monitored domains. Each row shows a domain, its current status, the assigned group, and the last-checked timestamp.
Domain checks query domain-based blacklists (DBLs), which target the sending domain rather than the source IP. Common DBLs include Spamhaus DBL, SURBL, and URIBL.

​
Add a domain

1

Open the Domains tab

Inside the project, open Tools → Blacklist Monitoring → Domains.
2

Add the domain

Choose Add domain, then enter:
  • Domain (example.com, mail.example.com). Bare hostnames only; no http:// or path.
  • Group (optional). Assigning a group applies its check frequency and notification settings to this domain.
3

Save

Save. The domain enters monitoring with Pending status until the first check runs.

​
Domain validation

Spotzee accepts standard hostname formats. Enter just the hostname (no scheme, no path, no port).
InputAccepted
example.comYes
mail.example.comYes
subdomain.example.co.ukYes
https://example.comNo (strip the scheme)
example.com/pathNo (strip the path)
*.example.comNo (no wildcards)

​
Edit a domain’s group

You can change which group a domain belongs to without removing it.
1

Find the domain

Locate the row in the Domains tab.
2

Open the row menu

Use the row’s overflow action to pick Edit.
3

Change the group

Pick a different group from the dropdown, or clear it to make the domain ungrouped. Save.

​
Run a check on demand

Domains are checked automatically on their group’s schedule. Force an immediate check when you want to verify a fix or investigate a specific listing.
1

Open the row menu

Use the row’s overflow action.
2

Choose Check now

Pick Check now. The domain is queued for an immediate check.
3

Wait for the result

The status updates within a few minutes. Refresh the page to pull the latest state.
For checking many domains at once, see Bulk actions.

​
Domain statuses

Same four statuses as IPs:
StatusColourMeaning
CleanGreenNot listed on any of the configured DBLs
BlacklistedRedListed on one or more DBLs; the count tells you how many
PendingAmberQueued for first check
ErrorGreyMost recent check failed
Hover the Blacklisted count to see the specific DBLs where the domain is listed.

​
Remove a domain

1

Open the row menu

Use the row’s overflow action.
2

Delete

Pick Delete. Confirm at the prompt.
Deletion stops monitoring for that domain and removes the record. The 30-day history removes too.

​
What’s checked

For each domain, Spotzee queries every DBL included in your configured Domain RBL type (Standard or Comprehensive, set under Settings). A listing on any one of them flips the domain to Blacklisted and triggers an alert. Like IP checks, domain checks are purely DNS-based and don’t touch your sending infrastructure.
