Information
Field | Description |
---|---|
Type | Displays the type of sendout.
|
Status | Displays the status of the message.
|
Sendout | This column shows the date and time when the message sendout was started. |
Group Name | Displays the name of the sendout group. |
Email | Displays the email address of the sendout group. The email address is not necessarily the "from" address that your contacts see in the inbox. You can see the "from" address in the Details area. |
Subject | Displays the subject line of the email message. The subject line is visible to your contacts in their email inbox. |
Name | Displays the name of the message in Mapp Engage. The message name is for internal use only. Your contacts do not see the message name. |
Category Label | Displays all messages within a category. Enter the category code in the Category Label field and hit Enter. The list displays all messages in this category. |
Tags | Displays any tags that were added to the message. You can add tags to a message during the message creation process to help with the management and organization of messages in Mapp Engage. |
Accepted | Displays the number of messages that the receiving MTA accepted from Mapp Engage. Accepted messages are all messages that arrived at the client-server and did not produce a bounce. Accepted messages include messages that are delivered to the inbox and to the spam and junk folders. Accepted messages are calculated as Accepted = Sent - Bounced |
Bounced | Displays the number of messages that the receiving email server rejected. The system differentiates between hard and soft bounces. Messages that go into the spam folder or are answered through automatic replies such as out-of-office messages, are not bounces. It occasionally happens that a receiving MTA incorrectly sends a bounce message back to the sending server. Mapp Engage compares these "false alarm" bounce messages with any recipient activity determined by the system, such as an open or a click. If a contact interacts with a message, the address is no longer considered a bounce. A false-alarm bounce does not contribute to the total number of bounces in the message statistics. |
Confirmed Open Rate | The Confirmed Open Rate is the number of unique openers that are confirmed divided by the total number of accepted messages. Confirmed openers include all messages where the tracking pixel was displayed or a link was clicked. A recipient can open a message with images suppressed and not click any links, in this case, Mapp Engage does not register the open. The Confirmed Open Rate is calculated as Confirmed Open Rate = Confirmed Opens / Accepted |
CTR | The Click Through Rate (CTR) displays the number of recipients who clicked divided by the number of accepted messages. Each recipient who clicks a link is a clicker. The CTR is calculated as CTR = Clickers/Accepted |
Details
Field | Description |
---|---|
ID | Displays the unique message ID. Mapp Engage assigns a unique message ID to every message when it is created. |
Channel | Displays the sendout channel. Mapp Engage supports the following sendout channels: email, SMS, and mobile push. |
External Message ID | Displays the external message ID. The external message ID is a value that is added to links during message sendout. This value is then transmitted to an external system, such as a web analytics tool or e-commerce shop. Example: Every time that you send a newsletter, you add the external message ID to every link in the email. This ID helps you track the performance of each newsletter in your e-commerce system and web analytics tool. |
From Address | Displays the "from" address that is displayed in the recipient inbox. This address is not necessarily identical to the group email address. You define the "from" address in the group settings. |
Category | Displays the message category. A message category is a keyword that you assign to one or more related messages. Categories enable you to organize and identify related objects in the system. |
Size | Displays the estimated size of the message. The size is calculated based on a personalized standard message that the system created. However, an individual message can be smaller or larger than the stated value. |
Attachments | Displays any attachments that were sent with an email message. |
Processing Start | Displays when the message processing began. Message processing can be scheduled up to a maximum of 72 hours before message transfer. The time frame for message processing and message transport is defined in the Prepare Sendout window. |
Processing End | Displays when the message processing has finished. If the entry is empty, message processing is not yet complete. |
Duration | Displays how long it took to process the message. If the entry is empty, message processing has not yet begun. |
Transport Start | Displays when the message transport began. The time frame for message processing and message transport is defined in the Prepare Sendout window. |
Transport End | Displays when the message transport has finished. If the entry is empty, message processing is not yet complete. |
Duration | Displays how long it took to transport the message. If the entry is empty, message transport has not yet begun. |
Group Size | Displays the number of active members in the group when Mapp Engage started the sendout. This number does not reflect whether any addresses appear on a blacklist or Robinson list. If the sendout has a selection, the group size is not displayed. A selection changes the final size of the sendout. |
Selection | Displays the name of the selection that is applied to the message, if any. Selections filter contacts who match the criteria that you define. You can use selections to send targeted messages to a specific audience. If you did not apply a selection to the sendout, this line is empty. |
Skipped | Displays the number of addresses that Mapp Engage skipped before sendout. An address can be skipped during sendout for several reasons. For example, the address is on a blacklist or Robinson list. |
Messages Sent | Displays the total number of messages that the Mapp Engage mail transfer agent (MTA) sent. |
Hard Bounces | Displays the number of hard bounces. A hard bounce is a message that was not delivered to the recipient due to a permanent problem. For example, a message sent to an email address that does not exist. |
Accepted | Displays the number of Mapp Engage messages the receiving email server accepted. Accepted messages are all messages that arrived at the client-server and did not produce a bounce. This number includes messages that are delivered to spam and junk folders. Displays the number of messages that the receiving Message Transfer Agent (MTA) accepted. This number includes messages that are delivered to the inbox and to spam and junk folders. Accepted messages are thus all messages that arrived at the client-server and did not produce a bounce. Accepted messages are calculated as Accepted = Sent - Bounced |
Confirmed Openers | Displays the number of recipients who opened a message. Even if a recipient opens a message several times, it is only counted once. Confirmed opens include all emails where the tracking pixel was displayed or a link was clicked. This information is displayed for group messages only. |
Clickers | Displays the number of recipients who have clicked any link in the message. If a recipient clicks more than one link in the message, it only counts one time. This information is displayed for group messages only. |
Conversions (Unique) | Displays the number of recipients who have completed a defined conversion (for example, how many recipients completed a purchase). This information is displayed for group messages only. |
