There are two ways you can send tracked emails:
- Simply add: .selfdestructingmessage.com to the end of your recipients email address (they won't see this)
or
- Install our ActiveTracker plugin to add the tracking for you.
Testing? If you send tracked emails to yourself, your anti-spam filters may block them (people don't usually write to themselves) - so we recommend you test by sending to other people.
What will you tell me about the tracked emails I send?
SelfDestructingMessage will endeavour to provide the following in your tracking reports:
- Date and time opened
- Location of recipient (per their ISP city /town)
- Map of location (available on paid subscriptions)
- Recipients IP address
- Apparent email address of opening (if available)
- Referrer details (ie; if accessed via web mail etc)
- URL clicks
- How long the email was read for
- How many times your email was opened
- If your email was forwarded, or opened on a different computer
All messages sent via SelfDestructingMessage benefit from our SPF compliant and
Sender-ID compliant mail
servers. This confirms safe transmission of your messages, and also enables us to report delivery
status to you (including: bounce-backs, delays and success
notifications). Delivery information is listed in your Personal Tracking Page.
