Email Statistics

The Email Statistics page displays the statistics of the email. It shows the percentage of how many have been opened, delivered, and undelivered.

Note

You can hover over top of the question mark (?) icon in each of the Opened, Successfully Delivered, or Undelivered & Errors sections to learn more.

The following is a list of email statuses:

  • Successfully Delivered - This is the total number of emails that have been successfully delivered to the recipients.

  • Queued For Delivery - This is number of emails that are ready to be sent but are in queue for delivery. Emails are queued to improve deliverability.

  • Blocked - This is the number of emails that have been blocked due to deliverability problems, such as a bad domain name, incorrect email format, or if the recipient previously reported messages as spam. You can view or unblock them through the Email Blocked List.

  • Bounce - This shows the number of emails that could not be delivered, because an error message was received back from the recipient’s email service. There are two different types of bounces:

    • Hard Bounce - A hard bounce occurs when there is a permanent reason that the email cannot be delivered, such as an invalid email address.

    • Soft Bounce - A soft bounce is usually a temporary error.

  • Total Recipients - This is the total number of email recipients.

The following are the definitions for the columns that make up the Email Statistics page:

  • Status - The status of the email.

  • To - The email address it was sent to.

  • Date - The date of when it was sent.

  • Actions - Contains a preview button. This allows you to view the content of the email that was received.
