FAQs

Emails can be bounced (returned to the sender) or rejected (not accepted by the recipient’s email server) for several reasons, impacting communication and professional relationships. Understanding the common causes is the first step in resolving and preventing these issues:

  • Spam Filters: One of the most frequent reasons for email rejection is being flagged by spam filters. This can occur if the content of the email, the subject line, or even the sender’s email address is deemed suspicious or if it contains characteristics commonly associated with spam.
  • Blacklisting: If your email domain has been blacklisted, it means it’s been marked as a source of spam or malicious content. This can happen due to previous activities from your domain that were flagged as inappropriate or harmful. Being on a blacklist can significantly affect your ability to send emails to recipients across various networks.
  • Incorrect Recipient Address: A simple yet common cause for bounced emails is entering the recipient’s email address incorrectly. Typos or outdated email addresses can lead to delivery failures.
  • Full Mailbox: If the recipient’s mailbox is full and can’t accept new emails, your messages may be bounced back. This is more common in individual accounts rather than corporate ones.
  • Attachment Issues: Large attachments or attachments with file types that are blocked by the recipient’s email server can cause emails to be rejected or bounced.
  • Server Issues: Problems with either the sender’s or the recipient’s email server can lead to email delivery issues. This includes maintenance downtimes, configuration errors, or network issues.
  • Policy and Configuration Settings: Email servers have policies and configuration settings (like DMARC, SPF, and DKIM records) to verify the authenticity of incoming emails. If your email system is not correctly set up to align with these protocols, your messages might be rejected.


Identifying the specific reason behind bounced or rejected emails often requires analyzing bounce messages or consulting with your IT department or email service provider.

Assessing your email practices is essential for maintaining effective communication and ensuring your messages reach their intended recipients. Signs that your email practices may need improvement include:

  • High Bounce Rates: Regularly experiencing a high number of bounced emails is a clear indicator that your email practices could be optimized.
  • Spam Complaints: If recipients frequently mark your emails as spam, it’s a sign that the content of your emails or the frequency of your communications is not aligning with recipient expectations or preferences.
  • Low Engagement Rates: Low open and click-through rates can suggest that your emails are not engaging or relevant to your audience, indicating a need for content improvement.
  • Feedback from Recipients: Direct feedback or complaints about your emails, such as issues with opening attachments, readability problems, or unsolicited emails, point to areas for improvement.
  • Delivery to Spam Folders: If your emails consistently end up in recipients’ spam folders, this indicates that your emails are being perceived as spam by email filtering systems, necessitating a review of your email content and sending practices.


Monitoring these indicators and seeking feedback from your email recipients can help identify areas where your email practices may need refinement.

Preventing email delivery issues involves adopting best practices for email management and sender reputation. Here are steps you can take:

  • Maintain a Clean Mailing List: Regularly update your mailing list to remove invalid or unresponsive email addresses. Use double opt-in mechanisms to ensure recipients have explicitly agreed to receive emails from you.
  • Adhere to Email Authentication Standards: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records for your domain to improve your email’s authenticity and deliverability. These protocols help protect against spoofing and ensure that your emails are trusted by recipient servers.
  • Monitor Your Sender Reputation: Use tools to check if your domain is on any blacklists and take action to remove it if necessary. Maintain good email sending practices to avoid being blacklisted in the future.
  • Optimize Email Content: Ensure your email content, including subject lines and body text, does not trigger spam filters. Avoid excessive use of sales-oriented words, large images, and attachments when possible.
  • Engagement and Personalization: Craft engaging, relevant content that encourages recipients to interact with your emails. Personalization can increase relevance and reduce the likelihood of being marked as spam.
  • Test and Monitor Your Emails: Regular testing of your emails across different email clients and monitoring delivery metrics can help identify and rectify issues before they affect your broader email campaigns.
  • Educate Your Team: If multiple individuals or departments are sending emails, ensure they are trained on best practices for email communication and the importance of maintaining a positive sender reputation.


By implementing these strategies, you can significantly reduce the likelihood of email delivery issues, ensuring your communications reach their intended audience effectively.
