New Features

Parse API Update

Now we send the CC field as part of the Parse API notifications.

We’ve also added Sender Policy Framework (SPF) validation to the Parse API to allow for better determination of legitimate sources of email.

Stay tuned for an upcoming blog post that covers the Parse API functionality in depth.

New and Improved IP Reputation Methodology

This update allow us to improve the initial reputation of new dedicated IP’s via internal “warm-up” methods. What was already a good system is now even better.
