In the wake of Yahoogle’s new sender requirements…

The next wave of deliverability changes is taking shape. We knew from the beginning that the changes announced in 2023 were just a phase 1. Phase 2 will almost certainly include a DMARC requirement of p=quarantine, up from the p=none requirement today. We’re already seeing inbox providers use email clickbots to do more link reputation checks, which unfortunately artificially inflate click rates. We’re also seeing Gmail flag legitimate senders’ emails as “suspicious” in the inbox and block their images, asking recipients to either mark them as safe or report them as spam. All of these sender requirements will gain even more weight when Microsoft adopts them in the months ahead. More than ever, it’s important to not only follow deliverability best practices like authentication and managing complaint rates, but also effectively use HTML text and alt text to ensure your email’s message is conveyed when images are blocked.
