Email Deliverability

The ability to successfully deliver emails to recipients' inboxes.

Affected by sender reputation, email content, authentication (SPF/DKIM), and list quality. Sending to disposable or invalid emails hurts deliverability.

Sender Reputation

A score assigned to email senders based on their sending practices.

ISPs track bounce rates, spam complaints, and engagement. High bounce rates from disposable emails can damage sender reputation and cause emails to be filtered to spam.
