Whether they pay for the service or not, today’s email consumers expect their mailbox provider to know the difference between the emails they want to receive and the ones they don’t – and to get it right one hundred percent of the time. That means guaranteeing the timely delivery of important personal, transactional, and subscription emails, while at the same time protecting the sanctity of the inbox from the evil clutches of spammers, phishers, spoofers and other unsavory practitioners of the email dark arts.

And yet, as an ISP or Mail Administrator, you’re supposed to be able to tell the difference between a valid piece of communication and a wolf in sheep’s clothing in a fraction of a second. It’s enough to make you wish for supernatural powers. With the following services, Sender Score offers you all the benefits of email clairvoyance without the need to buy a crystal ball or dig up your old Ouija board.

Sender Score Blacklist

Because your time is the most valuable commodity of all, the Sender Score Blacklist allows you to take the substantial wealth of information compiled by Sender Score and put it to work for you in an automated fashion. By working with you and determining your exact needs, we can help you create a blacklist that will block the most troublesome senders before they get into your system and start causing problems. By using your data in your blacklist we make the blacklist sensitive to the most important needs of your network. And the blacklist is fully supported. Yes, that means that we have a real human being answering questions quickly so that you don’t have to. Put your Sender Score blacklist to work for you to quickly reduce false positive. Most importantly, did we mention it’s free?

By fine-tuning the system, you can reduce customer complaints significantly without increasing the workload on your already overstrained resources. There will always be judgment calls, but by weeding out the worst of the worst early in the process, you can free up more resources for making those tough calls later on.

Reputation Score

In email, as in most other pursuits, the past is a pretty good predictor of the future. Sender Score helps you take advantage of this phenomenon by maintaining comprehensive reputation for every major sender of commercial email. When you join the Sender Score program, information about the email you receive is reported back to Sender Score and combined with information from other ISP or Mail Administrators. We analyze more than 300 elements from each ISP or Mail Administrator to determine which senders are triggering complaints or engaging in questionable practices. Then we combine all this into a single reputation score for every major sender of commercial email today. Whenever you need to know whether a sender is worthy of your trust, you can just refer to Sender Score and get the answer in an instant.

With nearly instantaneous access to the reputation of almost any email sender, you’ll be able to make fast, informed decisions about whether any piece of email is something your customers want to receive or not. And when a commercial sender comes to you and asks why their message was blocked, you have the information you need to provide a detailed explanation – including advice on how to do better next time.
