Status Descriptions


  1. Delivered - Email was successfully delivered to the recipient's inbox.
  2. 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."
  3. 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.
  4. Bounced - Bounces happen when the email address isn't valid and exists on the bounce list.
  5. 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.
