After you send an email with MailerPlex, you can check opens in multiple ways.

1. Inside Your Gmail
Go to your Sent folder in Gmail. An opened emails will have blue tick against it. If it has not been opened yet, the tick remains grey. Hover your mouse on the blue tick and you can find activity summary (how many times it was opened, clicked and the last open time).

2. Chrome and Email Notifications
When someone opens your email for the first time, we show a chrome notification. We are careful about showing you a lot of notification, because it’s distracting. You will only receive the notification when your email is opened for the first time. No notification on further opens of the same mail thread.

Disabling Chrome Notification

We only send one notification per email thread. But if it is still taking away your focus, here is how you can easily switch off these notifications. Click on the MailerPlex blue icon inside the Gmail topbar. Then click on the switch to disable as shown below. If it’s blue, notifications are enabled and if it’s black, notifications are disabled.

Email Notification on first open

You also get an email when someone opens your mail ONLY for the first time. Most of our customers find it very useful as they can reach back quickly to take follow-up action. But if it’s distracting for you, you can switch it off by clicking on Turn off Email Notification link.

It should directly take you to your dashboard. If you see a sign in page, login using the same email Id that you use with MailerPlex.

Your dashboard has multiple sections. Here you can see all your sent emails and then filtered by Opened and Unopened. Opened emails can help you do better followups. For unopened, you may want to review the subject line and see what can interest your prospect better.

You can expand the activity summary link on each sent email to view the details. Once you expand, you can see each activity (opens, link clicks etc). For every activity, you can see the exact time, the location (if available), devices. This will give you a good view on the engagement on your sent email.

4. Daily email digest
