Know more on the process of warming up a domain or an IP, which is the first step for all email senders.
Due to the high threat level associated with spammers who send mass emails and engage in other email-related criminal activities, inbox providers are cautious about new sending domains and IP addresses. To safeguard their users, these providers expect new, legitimate senders to demonstrate their trustworthiness.
An IP/domain warm-up process involves gradually increasing the email volume sent from a specific pair of domain and IP address over several days and getting positive feedback from recipients to establish a positive sending reputation with inbox providers.
A warm-up process will only have positive results if you:
Guidelines: Respect the senders guidelines documented by each inbox provider.
Engagement: Demonstrate your users are expecting the emails you send and interacting positively with them.

Conducting a proper IP and domain warm-up is essential for building a strong reputation with all email providers in the long run. This process significantly reduces the risk of having block/delay issues and increases the likelihood of reaching your users' primary inboxes.
