How do I interpret the results (e.g., % inbox, % spam, % missing)?
Placement results typically show three categories:
Inbox percentage: Messages that reached primary inbox or tabs like Promotions. This is success.
Spam percentage: Messages filtered to spam or junk. This is a problem requiring investigation.
Missing percentage: Messages that never arrived. Could indicate blocking, bouncing, or extreme filtering.
Compare results across providers. Gmail 90% inbox with Outlook 40% spam reveals provider-specific issues.
Trends matter more than single snapshots. Declining inbox rates signal emerging problems.
Count how many ships docked safely, how many were impounded, and how many never arrived.
