Help Guide for Email Campaign Report.

This is a helpful guide to understand the Brumann Digital Email Campaign Report. We will provide all the information you will need so you know what each column means.

Recipients


This is the number of subscribers the email campaign was sent to.

Deliveries


The number of recipients that didn’t hard or bounce on this campaign.

Bounces


Bounces are broken down into 2 categories.

Soft Bounce

Soft bounces typically indicate a temporary delivery issue to an address and are handled differently than hard bounces. We will continue to attempt to deliver the email over the course of three days. If the email still soft bounces after we’ve attempted delivery for those three days, it will remain logged as a soft bounce on the live report.

If an email address continues to soft bounce across multiple campaigns, the address will be considered a hard bounce after 7 unsuccessful attempts and cleaned from the list.

Typical examples of soft bounces

    • Mailbox is full (over quota).
    • Recipient email server is down or offline.
Hard Bounce

A hard bounce indicates a permanent reason an email cannot be delivered. Once a hard bounce occurs the subscriber is removed from the list.

There are many reasons why hard bounces occur but here are the most common

    • Recipient Email address does not exist
    • Domain name does not exist
    • Recipient email server has completely blocked delivery.
