How do corporate vs consumer inbox signals differ?

Corporate and consumer inbox signals differ significantly:

Corporate environments:

Security gateways (Proofpoint, Mimecast) add filtering layers. IT administrators set policies. Quarantine workflows may delay or block messages. User engagement matters less than admin rules.

Consumer environments:

Provider algorithms dominate. User engagement heavily influences placement. Fewer administrator interventions. More standardized filtering across users.

B2B senders face different challenges than B2C senders. Corporate gatekeepers add complexity.

Consumer harbors follow standard rules. Corporate harbors have private security teams with custom protocols.
