Stop Guessing: Why We Built Inbox Placement Testing into the Core

There is nothing worse than the "Send and Pray" method. You craft a perfect email, hit send, and then... silence. You don't know if your users hated it, or if they just never saw it. For a long time, this was the status quo in email marketing. We decided that wasn't acceptable.

Why We Built Inbox Placement Testing into the Core

Deliverability isn't a black box; it's a measurable science. But most tools force you to pay extra for a separate "testing" service. We believed it should be part of your daily workflow. That's why we built our Seed List System directly into GetMailer.

How It Works

Before you send a major campaign, our system allows you to send a test blast to a distributed network of "seed" mailboxes—real accounts we monitor across Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, and iCloud. We don't just tell you if it bounced; we tell you exactly where it landed.

• The Primary Inbox: The holy grail.
• The Promotions Tab: Common for marketing, but lower visibility.
• The Spam Folder: The danger zone.

The "Grade" System

We aggregate these results into a simple grade (A through F). If you get a 'C', we'll tell you why. Maybe your authentication failed on Outlook. Maybe your subject line triggered a Yahoo spam filter. We give you actionable feedback before you burn your list.

We’ve found that users who test before they send see a 30% reduction in spam complaints because they catch issues early. It’s about having confidence. When you hit "Send" on GetMailer, you shouldn't be hoping. You should be knowing.
