Transactional emails<\/strong><\/a> are created during a business process. They are sent automatically from software systems once the customer has performed an action. This is different from email marketing, which is purely for promotional purposes. Marketing emails originate solely from the provider and are not sent as part of a business process. A transactional email is used to communicate with the customer.

Instead, the emails end up in the spam folder, quarantine, or in a worst-case scenario, are not delivered at all. If this happens with transactional messages, user satisfaction and trust suffer. For example, customers do not know whether an order has been received, when to expect delivery, or perhaps never receive an invoice for a product they already purchased.<\/p>\r\n For the company sending the emails, this means additional costs and extra work. In addition, the reputation and image of a provider is negatively impacted if emails are classified as spam and are not delivered.\r\n<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\"2_5\" _builder_version=\"4.16\" _module_preset=\"default\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=\"1\" admin_label=\"Welche Bedeutung hat der Sender Score?\" module_class=\"ret_padding_100-0\" _builder_version=\"4.17.1\" background_enable_color=\"off\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_row column_structure=\"1_2,1_2\" column_padding_mobile=\"on\" _builder_version=\"4.17.1\" max_width=\"100%\" custom_padding=\"||0px||false|false\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_column type=\"1_2\" _builder_version=\"4.16\" custom_padding=\"|||\" global_colors_info=\"{}\" custom_padding__hover=\"|||\"][et_pb_text admin_label=\"Text\" module_class=\"bigger cc-fax\" _builder_version=\"4.17.1\" _module_preset=\"default\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"] A sender's email reputation is determined by the reputation of the sending IP address and domain, as well as the quality of the email content. Internet service providers (ISPs) determine the sender reputation and trustworthiness.<\/p>\r\n The sender reputation is indicated, for example, by a sender score on a scale of 0 to 100. The higher the score, the better the reputation of an IP address when compared to others. If the sender score is high, most emails end up in the recipient's inbox. If the number is rather low, the sender's emails are likely to have high bounce rates<\/strong><\/a>, high block rates, and low open rates.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\"1_2\" _builder_version=\"4.17.1\" _module_preset=\"default\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_text admin_label=\"Text\" module_class=\"cc-fax\" _builder_version=\"4.19.0\" _module_preset=\"default\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"]Before sending emails for the first time, senders should be aware of their scores, because optimizing a bad score takes some time.
