HACKER Q&A

Anyone seen a reputation attack on their mailing list?


Intermittently we seem to be getting a flood of new subscribers to your email list, followed by many of those subscribers subsequently marking those emails as spam. In particular we noticed a lot of @comcast.com addresses as well as @msn.com. We then get flagged by our email provider.

Anyone have any ideas what someone’s motivation for this would be? Could it be a competitor trying to hurt your email list?

Are you incentivizing or otherwise 'forcing' signups?

Making users sign up to receive special content?

Could be they signup on one of your campaigns, the content doesn't meet their expectations or they become bored. Instead of unsubscribing they just click spam.

Are you using double-opt in?

I've noticed last month 2 bot attacks to my company website. It was strange. I think it was one of our competitor.

I know company that fixed all issues with email deliverabilities for my marketing and sales teams. You can email Vlad Podolyako from Folderly.com. He will fix your spam and mail list.
