Sunsetting Email Tracking
Email tracking has been discontinued and is not available for new Gmelius users due to new data protection laws (e.g., GDPR).

You can learn more about the reasons behind this decision here.

Email tracking works by inserting a small invisible picture in the body of your emails. Whenever the email is opened, a request is made to the Gmelius servers to load the pixel picture, and this triggers an open.

In order to NOT count your own opens as genuine opens, i.e., false positives, please ensure to follow the below instructions.
