- Select the date range for the emails you want to review.
- Click Search to view the email logs.


Status Descriptions
- Delivered - Email was successfully delivered to the recipient's inbox.
- Deferred - Email has been delayed for one of several reasons - most likely the number of emails sent to this domain in a given timeframe. Some ISPs are more likely to deliver emails to spam folders when there is a large amount of emails coming in. Deferred just means - "It will be sent soon."
- Dropped - This email status occurs when the email address you are sending to is on one or more suppression lists - bounces, unsubscribes, spam reports and invalid emails.
- Bounced - Bounces happen when the email address isn't valid and exists on the bounce list.
- Processed - This is an intermediate status when the email is being made ready for delivery. It is usually followed by the final status Delivered, sometimes Deferred, Dropped or Bounced.
