Additional bounce statuses are now available for spam complaints and "previously marked as hard bounce" for blacklisted addresses. We should add filters and ensure that these statuses are reflected in the Inactive Addresses list in BBIS, in the Blacklisted Email Addresses tab in CRM and on the email address in the contact record.
Based on discovery findings, we will be releasing several improvements over several upcoming releases to help show more information related to hard bounce including:
1) Spam complaint filters in email reports
2) Clear indicator that a message has bounced/failed on Communications tab of Constituent Record
3) Bounce status and reason on Communications tab of Constituent Record for each reason.
Our goal in these changes is to make troubleshooting reasons that a recipient didn't receive an email more efficient!
We are currently looking at SP20 for these changes.
I second this! emailing Samantha to try to join in on a discovery session!
We will be conducting discovery sessions on this topic in June. If anyone would be interested in joining a 30 minute session, please email samantha.mcguin@blackbaud.com to setup a discovery time.
Yes please!
I absolutely agree. I am with Wake Forest University and we are a CRM client and based on the current configuration we can not truly know who is receiving our email messages as it appears they are sent and the email is valid (no hard bounce sign). The ability to see it reflected on the email address the BBIS and Blacklisted lists would be extremely useful.
