Overview
Mailspike is a reputation-based email intelligence service that scores sending IPs based on analysis of real mail traffic. Unlike traditional blacklists that trigger on specific spam events, Mailspike builds a reputation profile over time. A poor Mailspike reputation can affect deliverability at mail servers that use Mailspike data in their filtering decisions.
