Understanding the email delivery in progress status in Seguno Email Marketing

The email delivery in progress status in Seguno Email Marketing means a newsletter is still sending. Learn what to expect.

The email delivery in progress status in Seguno Email Marketing means a newsletter is actively being sent, but delivery to all recipients isn't complete yet.

This status is normal and appears while Seguno sends the newsletter across recipient domains.


What happens during email delivery

While a newsletter shows email delivery in progress, Seguno Email Marketing completes these steps automatically, usually within a short time:

  1. Seguno queues the email for sending.

  2. Seguno validates the recipient list.

  3. Seguno contacts recipient domains.

  4. Receiving mail servers, such as Gmail or Outlook, accept and process the email.

  5. The email lands in the inbox, promotions tab, or spam folder, depending on each recipient's email provider.


Why newsletter delivery can take time

Delivery speed in Seguno Email Marketing depends on:

  • The number of subscribers receiving the newsletter

  • Your sending reputation and deliverability history

  • Traffic and throttling rules from recipient domains, such as Gmail rate limits

  • Temporary server delays

Larger lists can take longer because more data validation happens while Seguno prepares to send.


When to take action on a newsletter that's still sending

In most cases, you don't need to do anything. The email delivery in progress status updates automatically when sending finishes.

Review the newsletter in Seguno Email Marketing if:

  • The status stays at email delivery in progress for an unusually long time

  • A very large list is still processing after several hours

  • You receive an error notification

If the status doesn't change and no errors are visible, contact Seguno Support. Include the campaign name and send time.


FAQs

What does email delivery in progress mean in Seguno Email Marketing?

Why can't I see opens or clicks yet?

  • Tracking starts after successful delivery, and reporting data may take a short time to appear.

Can I edit or stop a newsletter while delivery is in progress?
