Unmatched MX targets top 100
According to Live Direct Marketing's daily Tranco top-1M scan (September 22, 2026), these are the 100 most frequent MX target hostnames that our dictionary does not yet attribute to a named mailbox provider. They are the raw material for improving provider detection — and a window into niche and regional email hosts.
Key facts
- 100 most-common unmatched MX hostnames, ranked by domain count.
- Unmatched = not yet mapped to a named provider in our open classification dictionary.
- Snapshot 2026-09-22; the list shifts as the dictionary improves.

Provider detection is only ever as good as its dictionary. An MX target is unmatched when it appears often enough to matter but does not fit any known provider pattern — usually a smaller hosting company, a regional mail platform, or a service that has grown popular faster than the classifiers tracking it.
We publish the unmatched leaders openly and deliberately. They are the exact frontier where the map is still blank, and they are the shortlist for the next dictionary update — each one, once identified, sharpens the mailbox-provider ranking for everyone.
