As you are likely aware, our system continuously monitors the quality of each Mailvian account, similar to other email marketing platforms.
However, our approach differs in that we maintain full transparency about this process and communicate any significant changes to you. We send emails to notify you of any sudden drops in your performance stats or changes in your IP pool. These emails guide how to address any issues that arise.
We are excited to announce an update to this system today. Previously, the open rate was considered a minor factor in our quality control system, with spam and hard bounces being the primary concerns.
However, due to the increasing unreliability of open rate tracking over the past year, we have decided to eliminate this factor from our quality control system. While we will continue to monitor open rates, they will no longer affect your sender score Furthermore, we have refined the review flags for accounts.
Previously, spam rates and hard bounce rates were combined, but we have now separated them for clarity. If your account receives a flag, our team can specify whether it was due to spam or hard bounce rates, allowing you to more effectively address the issue.
A quick reminder about the Sender Score.
Your sender score is determined by a combination of the IP(s) from the sending pool you are part of and your domain reputation. Your domain reputation is influenced by individual metrics such as spam rate, hard bounce rate, and reply rate. To a lesser extent, your open rate, soft-bounce rate, and click rate also contribute to this evaluation.
What truly matters is the reputation score assigned by Email Service Providers (ESPs) like Gmail, but they do not transparently share this data. Consequently, email marketing platforms utilize third-party services and also maintain their own scoring systems. Based on these scores, they categorize users into different IP pools.
There are IP pools for users with excellent metrics, and separate pools for those whose performance is not as strong, among others. This system helps in managing sender reputations effectively.
We follow a similar approach; if your statistics are poor, you are grouped with other accounts that also have subpar metrics.
Consequently, the IPs in that pool have a lower reputation, which, in turn, impacts both your total IP score and your domain reputation negatively. This, ultimately, affects your email deliverability.
If your statistics are good, your neighbors' will be too
If you send over 50,000 emails monthly, you have the option to acquire a private IP, having your personalized IP. This offers significant benefits, though there are downsides to consider as well. If a private IP interests you reach out to us at support@mailvio.com

We've improved the process for extracting product names from Stripe transactions. Previously, product names from transactions processed through platforms like ThriveCart were formatted as “Purchase of {product} via ThriveCart,” which could complicate the identification of the product name.
We've refined it to filter out unnecessary wording, allowing for the direct display of the product name
2. Fixing the RFM_PRODUCTS_PURCHASED Custom Field Bug
Our second update is a bug fix related to the RFM_PRODUCTS_PURCHASED custom field. Before this fix, there was an issue where a new product purchase would overwrite the previously set values in this custom field.
For example, if a customer bought two products last week, these were saved in the RFM_PRODUCTS_PURCHASED field. However, if the same customer purchased another product later, the new product would replace the previous two.
This issue has been addressed. The RFM_PRODUCTS_PURCHASED field now captures all products a customer purchases, maintaining a complete history without overwriting previous entries. Regardless of the number of products bought, the record of their purchases remains intact and accessible.
Setting up Mailvio to keep track of what each contact has bought from you has always been possible but cost quite a bit of effort (like with every other Email Marketing platform). With this update, it is now near zero effort. All you need to do is link the Mailvio RFM Tool with your payment platform(s).
After linking your payment platform with Mailvio RFM, any transaction imports will automatically extract product information. This process forms distinct buyer groups based on their purchases. For instance, if you have two products, namely Product 1 and Product 2, when customers buy these and their transactions are imported into Mailvio RFM, two separate groups will be created. Each group is named after the product, categorizing customers according to their specific purchases.
This significantly simplifies the process of targeting specific buyers from a given product group. You can now effortlessly reach out to them through automated campaigns or additional email broadcasts, tailoring the content to what you want them to engage with.
