Delivery issues with Microsoft all 100 inboxes very warmed up no blacklist.
Here is what is going on. I use mailmeteor to check my copy. I am doing inbox placement testing on instantly. If I write a six grade reading level email copy and don't spintax it. I can get 90%+ in the inbox. As soon as I spintax it it even minor and check the spintax copy in mailmeteor. I only hit 30% inbox placement test. Now I can take that same spintax copy with Google inboxes and get 100% inbox on domains that are 21 days old. I don't get it is anyone having major issues with Microsoft? Mostly Micro to Google inboxes. My reply rates used to be a little over 3% now .5%

@Grant Charge thank you for the break down. even if I just spintax the first intro Hello, Hi Greatings, {{fist.name}} II go 80% spam. If I do no spintax, I can hit about 80%-90% microsoft to google inbox. I have implemented your suggestion no spintax but 4-5 versions in each campaign. How accurate do you believe instantly inbox placement or any providers are? I feel like I am questioning (not trusting) everything right now. I am very happy my Gmail inboxes are ready to send tomorrow! Thanks for your input! My fingers are crossed for good reply rates this week!

@Grant Charge I got early access to that tool when it came out. It truly is an impressive tool for writing copy. Anyone struggling with copy or offer angels use it. game changer!
Im in Spam, Trying to Learn best tools and practices for real email warm-up and sender reputation?
I’m trying to figure out which tools actually build real sender reputation in the warm-up stage. Instantly’s warm-up feels weak — the results don’t last and Google seems to flag domains that all warm up in the same closed pool. What are the best tools right now for real, high-quality warm-up that actually builds trust with Gmail and Outlook? Also, what are the technical best practices for warming up properly and how do you know if it’s working? Like what metrics or signs show that your sender reputation is actually improving? Basically just trying to find what’s really working in 2025 for strong deliverability and long-term inbox placement. I don’t really trust Instantly’s inbox placement anymore — it kept showing 100% placement, but the campaigns only got around a 0.5% reply rate.

@Brendon Jos I had the same thing happen to me. Was at 3% reply rate google ban hit me I purchased some prewarmed microsoft accounts. Did inbox placement it is at 100% with the copy I am sending and my reply rate is down to 1.2% same copy I was running getting 3% reply rate. I am warming up 50 new gmail accounts so we will see have about another 10 days to go before slowly start sending. I will let you know how it goes. I also have been writting back to the "not at this time thank you for reaching out" responses. to get a little more trust. Saying.. Thank you for the kind response have a great week! I will let you know how it goes and If I find any fixes.
GOT MY FIRST CLIENT!
Just wanted to share, for group encouragement's sake, that I landed my first client from cold email last week. I booked a call, pitched a 3-tiered marketing automations solution, and landed a $9K deal. I am honestly surprised at this result! Needless to say, I just purchased 3X more email boxes and am "tripling" down on cold email. Ha! I'm also rewatching the cold email masterclass because I think I could do way better with my results. I've sent about 16,000 emails so far and tried three different angles in my campaigns. Funny enough, the first iteration is what got the deal.

🚨 Cold Email Just Changed (Again)
Here’s What You MUST Do to Stay Safe 💥 Google nuked thousands of inboxes. Panic everywhere. But here’s the truth: Cold email isn’t dead. It just evolved. I just finished rebuilding our entire infrastructure after the recent shutdowns, and here are the new cold email commandments to survive 2026: 📉 No more custom tracking domains 🧠 Avoid Google OAuth fingerprints 📪 Reduce daily send volume (under 20 emails!) 🛡 Use Instantly’s AI features: Skip hostile leads, block spam traps 💡 Consider diversifying with SMTP providers like Mailin & Mission Inbox 🎥 I break everything down in this must-watch video Get your new mailboxes set-up here. Access to my software savings.
