How to Find Users With Bounced Emails?

Problem

Unable to identify users with bounced emails.

Explanation

  • An email hard bounce occurs when the MoEngage system detects that the recipient's email address does not exist. This tracking is unique for each user based on their user ID.
  • An email soft bounce is tracked in the MoEngage system when there is a temporary delivery issue. This tracking is unique for each user based on their user ID.

Solution

Perform the following steps:

  1. Go to the desired Email campaign to identify users who have encountered bounced emails.
  2. Copy the campaign ID.
  3. Hover over to the left menu and select Segment > Create segment.
  4. While creating the segment, use the OR condition instead of the AND condition between the Email Bounced and Email Soft Bounced events in the nested filters.

Example

  • As shown in the following screenshot, the first filter searches for users who experienced at least one hard email bounce in the past 30 days.

  • The second filter searches users who experienced at least one soft bounce in the past 30 days.

  • In both filters, the Readable Campaign Id (case-insensitive and dependent on a specific scenario) matches the specified value.
  • As a result, hard or soft bounce emails associated with Readable Campaign Id in the past 30 days will be identified as true.
