We've checked our billing history and the usage report for the day in question states that we've sent around 12,000 messages.
It seems that only a small percentage of the emails were actually sent out because: a) non of the email to our own test email accounts were received for this campaign (in the past this worked flawlessly) b) we're using a counting mechanism (that's based on a invisible small image that counts actual reads) that gave us the information that only 100 emails were actually read from the 12,000 emails we've sent out. In past campaigns around 50% of the emails were actually read by our customers. c) In past we've received several auto-reply and in-vacation-reply messages and actual customer requests. But this time we've received only one of these messages. Is there anyone at google who can comment on this issue?
