sender-monitoring

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the risk of undetected email deliverability failures that damage sender reputation, trigger provider throttling, and cause missed critical communications, giving you visibility into issues before they impact recipients or violate provider policies.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Tiered Metric Tracking: Monitor critical deliverability metrics (spam complaint rate, bounce rate, authentication failure rate, blocklist status) with clear healthy, warning, and critical thresholds aligned to Gmail, Yahoo, and Microsoft requirements.
• Dashboard & Alert Configuration: Build health scorecards, time-series volume plots, and per-provider breakdown dashboards, with tiered alert rules (immediate, warning, informational) and guardrails to reduce alert fatigue.
• Provider & Blocklist Integration: Set up free monitoring tools including Google Postmaster Tools, Microsoft SNDS, Yahoo Sender Hub, and automated DNS-based blocklist checks for major lists like Spamhaus and Barracuda.
• Incident Response Planning: Access structured playbooks for SEV-1 through SEV-4 deliverability incidents, including containment, diagnosis, remediation, and post-incident review steps to minimize downtime.
• Use Case: An e-commerce marketing team can use this Skill to set up alerts that fire when their spam complaint rate exceeds Gmail's 0.3% hard limit, preventing throttling and ensuring promotional emails reach customer inboxes.
