“Delivered” and “seen” are different claims. An email can be technically delivered and still sit in a Spam folder nobody checks, which for a lead notification is the same as lost.
Formitor’s deliverability layer treats that as a monitored condition, not a mystery.
Inbox placement
Formitor reads where each tagged test lead actually lands: Inbox, Promotions or Spam. Placement drift is one of the sneakiest failure modes there is, because mail keeps “delivering” while a provider quietly reclassifies it. Now the drift shows up in your dashboard before real leads start getting filtered.
Diagnostics that name the fix
Per sending domain, Formitor checks the authentication records mailbox providers actually judge you on: SPF (present, includes the real senders, under the 10-lookup cap), DKIM (signing, with the published key matching what arrives), and DMARC (a policy that exists and won’t quarantine your own legitimate mail). Each finding comes with a tailored fix, and a one-click recheck confirms your DNS edit immediately instead of waiting for the next scheduled run.
Hard verdicts, not DNS lint
A follow-up release made the verdicts sharper: placement and DKIM checks now read the authentication results from real delivered messages, the actual pass/fail the receiving provider recorded in the message headers. DNS says what should happen; headers say what did. Formitor reports the second one.
Also checked: each form’s notification address itself, catching dead or misconfigured recipient domains, a stupidly common cause of silently lost leads.
Full picture: email deliverability.
