Complaint Handling

A spam complaint from the recipient's mailbox provider suppresses the address immediately, logs the feedback type, and counts toward a complaint-rate check — above 0.1% in 24 hours, sending pauses automatically.

Proactive Complaint Management

Feedback loops via the provider
Complaints arrive as provider notifications whose signature PostFrame verifies before acting
Auto-suppression on complaint
Recipients who complain are immediately suppressed — no second chances to annoy
Complaint-rate monitor
The rate over the last 24 hours is checked against a threshold — 0.1% by default, configurable per workspace — and sending pauses when it is crossed
Tags on every event
Complaint events carry the email's tags, so you can see which kind of send drew them
Complaint Thresholds
Below 0.1% — Healthy
Sending continues; the rate is visible on your dashboard
0.1% — default pause threshold
Sending pauses automatically; the check re-runs and lifts the pause when the rate recovers
Configurable
Set your own threshold per workspace if your traffic warrants it
Per-provider breakdown
The Providers report shows rates by SES, Postmark, Mailgun and every other connected provider
Questions

Common questions, straight answers.

What happens the moment someone marks my email as spam?

The provider's complaint notification is verified, the address is added to your suppression list with the reason "complaint", the feedback type is logged, and email.complained fires to your webhooks.

What is the complaint-rate pause?

PostFrame checks complaints over the last 24 hours against a threshold — 0.1% by default, adjustable per workspace. Above it, sending pauses until the rate recovers.

Can I see which sends caused complaints?

Every event carries the email's tags, and the Providers and Events reports break complaints down, so tag your sends and the pattern is visible.
