​Mailvibes shouldn’t cause your emails to be blocked or classified as a spam. Mailvibes uses Gmail delivery systems (Gmail SMTP server) to send your emails, this means:

a) Your emails are always correctly sent and delivered with the best available email technology (Gmail)  

b) Mailvibes just adds a tracking pixel to your emails, but doesn’t send your emails. Adding a tracking pixel to your emails shouldn’t cause any problem at all. 

c) In case your emails are not received or classified as spam, it means that the recipient email service (email server, firewall or antivirus) made a false positive. This means that the recipient email service believes your email is dangerous or spam.  

Some reasons for a false positive:

​- The subject/body of the email is marked as spam by the spam filter. there are words in the email that the spam filter doesn’t like. 
– Recipient spam filter rules are too strict or poorly configured. 
– Your email as a sender email is classified as a spammer by the spam filter.
​- Mailvibes tracking pixel (Mailvibes) is marked as something dangerous by the firewall / antivirus
– Recipient’s email server is poorly configured
​- Sender email is blacklisted 
– Sender email server is blacklisted 

The website mail-tester.com is free to use and can also help you determine why your emails aren´t being delivered to inbox.

​In conclusion, if an email sent with Mailvibes doesn’t arrive to the recipient, the problem is in the recipient email service, but not in Mailvibes. 

For technical and also ethical reasons (they could be classified as espionage), MailVibes does not specifically inform you when your emails have been forwarded or to whom they have been forwarded.

However, if an unusually high number of openings are generated for a particular email you have sent, you can generally assume that the email has been forwarded.

When your emails are forwarded to someone else and that person opens the forwarded email / downloads the tracking pixel, you will receive a notification. However, if the recipient of the forwarded email does not use MailVibes, this opening will be attributed to the recipient of the original email since MailVibes cannot technically (and legally) trace the forwarded emails, meaning that it cannot identify that it was not the original. recipient who opened the email.

Some problems with MailVibes can be resolved by updating the MailVibes extension.

Chrome usually sends extension updates gradually over a few hours / days. If you want to force an update of the MailVibes extension to speed up the process, you can do it manually:

1) Open a new tab in Chrome, copy / paste chrome: // extensions /? Id = ndnaehgpjlnokgebbaldlmgkapkpjkkb in the address bar and then press Enter.

2) Activate the Developer Mode option in the upper right corner of the screen and then click the Update button.

If this doesn’t work, reinstall the MailVibes extension in your browser. Instructions explaining how this can be done can be found here.
