Delivery Tracking

What the delivery report shows per person, how a status moves, and why prelim and full sends are counted apart.

6 min readUpdated August 2026

One Row Per Person Per Channel

Every send writes a tracking row for each recipient on each channel it used. Text and email are recorded separately. The report groups by person and shows both.

StatusWhat it means

The following staff have no phone number and will not receive this message:

Statuses Only Move Forward

Provider updates can arrive out of order, so a late "delivered" can land after an "opened". A status never moves backwards. A row that reached Opened stays there.

Important: A bounce that arrives after an open does not turn the row red. The mail was opened, so it arrived.

Machine Opens

Apple Mail Privacy Protection and similar services fetch the tracking pixel before the person has seen anything. G-Casper Pro records those as Delivered. They do not count as opens, and a later bounce still shows.

Tip: Lots of Delivered and few Opened on email is usually privacy protection on iPhones and Macs.

Prelim and Full Are Counted Apart

The report keeps prelim and full sends apart and labels which one it is showing, so a day where only the approvers have the sheet does not read as distributed.

Important: Sending a prelim does not mark the day as distributed. The AD Control Center still shows the day as not sent until the full send goes out.

Counts Are Cumulative

An opened message is also a delivered one, so the roll-up counts it in both. Delivered is everyone it reached, opened or not.

Reviewing a Different Day

The report has its own day selector. You can read Day 3's delivery while drafting Day 5 without moving the app's selected day. Filters cover channel, status, and a search across name, department and address.

Reconciling

Refresh, at the top of the report, re-reads our record and asks the email provider for its history on that send. It fills in email statuses whose updates never reached us. Text statuses come only from the provider's own updates.

Tip: Press Refresh before you chase anyone. An email status that looks stuck is often an update that got lost on the way.
