> Do you get answers to 100% of emails you send? I don't find this plausible. Now, if you get answers to maybe 30% of emails you send, how do you know the other 70% is just because people didn't write anything back? How are you ruling out the possibility that some of those 70% never received your email in the first place? Most of the personal email I send is to companies where I do expect and get responses, or to my family, or to mailing lists. I know family get my emails because they respond. I know companies do because they respond to support queries. I know mailing lists do because I see my messages in the list archives. I know there’s a good mix of receiving operators because I get DMARC reports etc. > So far I haven't encountered a single email provider that successfully delivers 100% of mail sent. Postmark sometimes fails to deliver, SendGrid sometimes fails to deliver, etc. But you're claiming that you have found the secret sauce and you actually have better deliverability than SendGrid and Postmark - and that's for confirmation emails of all things, the type of mail that very often lands in the spam folder. I don't believe you. I don’t really care if my email ends up in spam folders as long as it does not get dropped on the floor entirely, but I genuinely do not get complaints where people have not received/can’t find their confirmation emails. I do practise good automated email hygiene (automatic removal when things bounce permanently, etc). I don’t know what to say that will convince you that I have not personally experienced issues except with DT and AT&T, but… I haven’t.

I do practise good automated email hygiene (automatic removal when things bounce permanently, etc). I care very much if my email ends up in spam folders. But if you're only talking about your email landing (in some folder), then sure, you convinced me.
