To inspect email delivery history, the exact steps depend on the email provider or system you’re using. In general, you want to look for message logs, delivery reports, or audit logs.
Common places to check
- Email admin console
Look for sections like:- Mail flow
- Message trace
- Email logs
- Delivery reports
- Audit log
- Email service APIs or dashboards
If you send mail through a service like SendGrid, Mailgun, Amazon SES, Postmark, etc., check:- Event logs
- Webhook events
- Suppression/bounce/complaint logs
- Mail server logs
If you run your own server, inspect:- SMTP logs
- queue logs
- bounce logs
- deferred/retry logs
What to look for
- Sent
- Delivered
- Deferred / queued
- Bounced
- Rejected
- Spam / complained
- Opened / clicked if tracking is enabled
Useful filters
- Recipient address
- Sender address
- Date/time range
- Message ID / transaction ID
- Subject line
If you mean a specific platform
Tell me which one, and I can give exact steps, for example:
- Gmail / Google Workspace
- Outlook / Microsoft 365
- SendGrid
- Mailgun
- Amazon SES
- Postfix / Exim / Exchange
If you want, I can also show you how to inspect delivery history via command line, admin portal, or API.
