Analytics
Once you have triggered the mailing, you will be redirected to the message analytics. The statistics show you status information about the mailing after it has been sent.
In the first column you can see on which day and at what time the message was sent and to how many contacts the message was sent. Next to this, you can see in a coloured progression to how many participants the message was successfully "sent" or whether there are participants for whom the message dispatch has a different status.
You can find more information about the message status here.
Hard and soft bounce
The overview shows you the number of hard and soft bounces.
- Soft bounce: The e-mail reaches the recipient's mail server - the e-mail address is therefore known there. However, the e-mail does not reach the recipient. A soft bounce occurs if, for example, the recipient's mailbox is full, the server is offline or overloaded, or the email is too large. An automatic reply to your e-mail can also lead to soft bounces. Other reasons could be:
- The mailbox is not configured correctly or is inactive.
- The recipient's e-mail server is down or offline.
- Too many e-mails have been sent to the recipient's e-mail server over time.
- The e-mail message was blocked due to content or does not comply with the recipient server's guidelines.
- The e-mail message does not comply with the anti-spam or anti-virus requirements of the recipient server.
- The e-mail message does not comply with the sender requirements of the recipient server.
- Hard bounce: The e-mail is permanently undeliverable. Reasons for a hard bounce are, for example, invalid e-mail addresses (unknown domain name, spelling mistake, etc.). The recipient's mail server may also block the sender's mail server. A hard bounce can also be caused by a strict e-mail security filter.
Attention!
If you have stored the placeholder to unsubscribe from communication in your messages and a contact unsubscribes from communication with this e-mail address, this contact will also be listed here as a hard bounce.
