Spam trap monitoring

Avoid spam traps

Sending to spam traps will quickly diminish your sender reputation and eventually land you on a blocklist if you don’t take action. It’s one of the fastest and easiest ways to do serious damage to your email deliverability.

Spam Trap Monitoring from Mailgun Optimize provides insight into how often you are sending to pristine, recycled, and typo spam traps. Identify issues in near-real-time so you can protect your sender reputation and avoid serious disruption to your email program.

Google Postmaster Tools and Microsoft SNDS

Maintain an exceptional sender reputation

As your domain and IP reputations diminish, so does your ability to get important email to the inbox of your subscribers. Your reputation is one of the single most important factors in whether you land in the inbox or the spam folder.

Mailgun Optimize has direct integrations with Google Postmaster Tools and Microsoft SNDS so you can monitor domain and IP reputation, spam and blocklist results, delivery errors, and more from directly within the app.

Bounce Classification

Identify and remove unnecessary email bounces

Don’t let bounce rates diminish your reputation and ruin deliverability - monitor your bounces and filter by mailbox provider, spam filter, and bounce category.

Bounce Classification works by identifying the bounces that result from your actions as a sender. This eliminates most soft bounces that might register due to temporary issues like network interruptions, and focuses on the bounces that impact your deliverability the most like bounces from policy violations, low reputation, and blocklisting. This feature is only available for senders using Mailgun as their email service provider.

The importance of your email sender reputation

Every time you send an email, ISPs like Gmail or Microsoft monitor your sending practices and assign a reputation to your domain and IP address. This reputation is based on several factors from spam complaints, to sending volume and everything in between. If your reputation diminishes, your emails are more likely to land in the spam folder, making your sender reputation a pivotal factor in determining the success of your email program.
