What are some different complaint types?
1. Spam markings—Recipients mark your email as spam. This occurs when:
- You send emails to people who have not subscribed to receive your marketing emails.
- The unsubscribe process is too complicated.
- Your sending practices irk your contacts.
2. Direct complaints—A contact submits a complaint about your email to their ISP, the sender domain's anti-abuse team, email service provider, or various antispam services.
