Garrett Hutsko Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 I use gmail accounts for all my promo materials mainly so that I can get all the promos without having them play yo yo and cause my account to be locked. Here is the problem even though I use gmails. I have accounts reporting a bounce to the mailer and yet I never see the email so I can do something to fix the problem. Then to add insult to injury the account gets locked and I can't reach the admin to get the account fixed. I received a bounce email on my Traffic Center account and with the help of the Admin we worked through the problem and my account is back on track. I now have a similar problem in Daily Credit Mailer and they seem to be ignoring me. I left messages with them trying to get my upgraded account restarted and seem to be spinning my wheels. If anyone else had had similar problems maybe we can get through to gmail and get something done about this type of problem since it seems to be in the way the emails are being handled. The only way I know there is a problem is when the Admin locks the account waiting for me to do something. I just with the Admin would respond so I can get aback on track.

Darren Olander Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 I think what is happening is gmail is throttling your incoming mails because you are receiving too many in a short period.. so some are getting rejected. You can open another gmail account and start using that one to spread the volume so you have less going to each account. I am using a couple different ones myself. jonjenkins 1 Quote Founder of Marketing CheckpointMy Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still I wish gmail would do more to help me correct problems causing bounce emails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimberly Rutherford Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 Have you tried whitelisting the addresses sending those mails, and filtering them into separate folders in your own inbox so gmail knows you're interested in them?

I worked with the Admin to get that account back on track but it was still in bounce status in spite of the filters. The problem has been resolved finally.

paulserban Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Gmail has very strict rules about the number of emails received. If I am correct, only one / second. If there are periods when are coming more emails in a short time, you are banned for a period. In any case you'll find more here: https://support.google.com/a/answer/1366776?hl=en&ref_topic=6013516 Quote http://www.1001nightsmailer.com - a paid membership site which allows free members too! http://www.pizzasafelistmailer.com - my first safelist mailer site!

Diane Mumm Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 I now have a similar problem in Daily Credit Mailer and they seem to be ignoring me. I left messages with them trying to get my upgraded account restarted and seem to be spinning my wheels. I had the same issue with DCM, I was receiving a bounce message daily.. it seems to now be resolved and the mailer seems to be working much better than before... I think the main issue is mails coming in too fast.. I make it a point to clean out trash at least once every 2 weeks..and inbox everyday..

I think the main issue is mails coming in too fast.. I make it a point to clean out trash at least once every 2 weeks..and inbox everyday..I resolved the original problem, it seems they replied but I didn't recognize the sender and a link to the account wasn't clear. Once I found their replies the problem was cleared up fast. It seems Google is starting to be more and more restrictive, I have found the answer to be a new gmail so the emails are spread out across many gmail accounts so you don't breach the limits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
