The stack behind the sends

TheFeed. sends with SendGrid and publishes a DMARC none policy.

Sends with

SendGrid

Domain authentication

DMARC: none

Failures are monitored but still delivered, so the policy is not enforced yet.

SPF also authorizes Google Workspace, Mandrill and Mailgun to send as this domain, which usually means other tools sit alongside SendGrid.

The median TheFeed. campaign carries 0 images.

How this is measured

Every figure comes from real TheFeed. emails captured in Inbox Archive, not from a survey or a vendor report. Medians and the campaign mix appear once a brand has 12 campaigns archived, and the day and time charts once 12 of them are scheduled sends. “Typical Health & Fitness brand” is the median across the 17 Health & Fitness brands that clear the same bar, each counted once however much it sends. Campaign types are sorted automatically. Discounts are read from subject lines, and a copyable code counts only when one appears in the email, so offers applied at checkout are missed.
