Welcome to the Word to the Wise Delivery Wiki
This is a repository of the public information that contributors know about email delivery, including the social issues, technical issues and policy issues. Most of the information here is what I've collected through years of handling delivery. Wherever possible sources for the information are noted.
Some useful starting points:
- ISP whitelists, feedback loops, contact information, rate limits ...
- Definitions of terms often used when talking about delivery
- Advice about best practices and how to use email successfully
Adding and Updating Information
Anyone is welcome to create pages or add information. We do ask that if you are going to edit or create a large number of pages, please register for an account. Due to ongoing wiki spam problems, we have disabled anonymous edits or page creation.
