Going from the list provided at: https://www.isipp.com/blog/validity-fbl-charging-how-much-cost/ The only one that I really get any feedback from is Comcast, maybe Synacor. And those are few and far between. What's going to be the incentive to pay for these ARF reports? Sure, other people may

I think that’s the point, mostly all of them used to allow direct setup but don’t anymore (when universal fbl became widespread). Seznam is one of 20+. Now that you have to pay for it maybe more vendors will start allowing direct setup again? That’s what I’m wondering about. I guess we will see.

I thought Validity was making the free FBL more like Google's Postmaster Tools FBL. Which, I've never gotten one iota of anything relevant in Google's FBL system. If I had to venture a guess, I'd say that this is going to be the future of FBLs. I think providers want to be able to block certain

I do agree with your thoughts. A good platform gives the users the control to do what they want with FBLs via automation (doesn’t force to unsub globally but yes some senders prefer do that). I think the point though, is whether or not Validity having control over (or any single entity) is good f

How an FBL is supposed to be used versus how an FBL is used is always a topic for discussion that can be applied to anything. How many of us expect email to be delivered instantly? But where is it defined that email has to be delivered the second the sender clicks that send button? But we all ge

I'll chime in. For me the thing that doesn't sit well for me is that the inbox providers have adopted the universal fbl and force you to use that (at least from the available info on their postmaster sites) rather than being able to set up directly with them like you used to be able to. Whether F

I agree with you Neil, let me specify it better even if it's a bit off topic. The FBL SHOULD NOT be used like that but this is how users act based on the feedback we collected from end users when we tried to understand why we was receiving so much FBL on double-optin collected lists and transac

It's not at all unusual for FBL to be used to block recipients. Transactional email providers quite often use feedback loop reports to add recipients to their customer's suppression list. The reason you specifically find it frustrating is because of this: Most of the providers on the feedba
