Email Delivery Status

When you check whether an invite or a notification reached someone, you'll see one of the delivery statuses below. Each one tells you a different stage of the email's journey from our server to the recipient's inbox.

StatusWhat it means
ProcessedThe message has been received by our sending service and is ready to be delivered.
DroppedThe message was not sent. Common reasons include an invalid address, content flagged as spam, an address that previously unsubscribed or bounced, or the recipient list being over a sending quota.
DeliveredThe message was successfully delivered to the recipient's mail server.
DeferredThe recipient's mail server temporarily rejected the message. Delivery will be retried automatically.
BounceThe recipient's mail server could not or would not accept the message at all.
OpenThe recipient opened the email in their email client.
ClickThe recipient clicked a tracked link inside the email.
Spam ReportThe recipient marked the email as spam.
Watch out for

A pattern of Bounce or Dropped statuses for one organization usually means their mail server is blocking our sending domain — ask their IT team to allow it. See Notifications for where these statuses show up.
