Glossary

The world of email is filled with technical jargon and three-letter acronyms. We've tried to explain them all here.

Email Service Provider

The service provider you hire to send and/or deliver your emails. They'll run email servers and spam filters for you, and many provide a web interface.

DMARC: Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance

DMARC prevents your domain from being used in email spam and scams. With DMARC only the servers you authorize can send email on your behalf.

Bulk Email

When the same email message is sent to multiple recipients it's considered Bulk Email. This isn't necessarily spam, however.

Pyzor is a collaborative system used to detect bulk and spam emails. It is run by your email service provider, often as part of SpamAssassin.
