Communications may show several different statuses:

Sent

Northpass has successfully processed the request to send the communication to the person.

Dropped

A communication was requested to be sent to a person however Northpass did not end up sending it. This status would appear if, for example, the recipient had previously unsubscribed.

Delivered

The communication has been sent by Northpass and has been accepted by the recipient's server. This status does not mean that the communication appeared in the recipient's inbox, only that it was received by its server.

Bounced

Northpass attempted to send the communication to the recipient however was not able to deliver it. This is often the result of an incorrect email address.

Opened

If the recipient views a communication and has images turned on, it will be marked as opened. If the recipient views the communication but does not enable images, we are unable to track that it has been opened.

Spam Report

The recipient has marked the communication as SPAM.
