Review the result for each seed account alongside content and domain findings. Change the relevant sender or message setting, then rerun the same test to compare the outcome.

Yes. MailSlurp combines provider inbox placement tests with scheduled checks, API automation, device previews and delivered-email audits. Start with the sender and message you want to evaluate, then review where each copy arrived in the test accounts. Explore inbox placement testing.
An accepted send confirms that a server accepted the message. Receipt in a MailSlurp test inbox confirms that the message arrived there. Provider placement separately records the folder or tab observed in real seed accounts, including inbox, Promotions, spam or junk. A missing result needs investigation; it is not an inbox pass.
Yes. Send through the ESP, domain and template you already use. For a manual campaign test, create a MailSlurp run, copy its current seed addresses and tracking marker, and send only to that controlled test audience. For recurring checks, use a supported sending connection or the API workflow. Read the placement setup guide.
Spam scores identify message risks; provider placement records what happened to each tested copy. Review both. Gmail Promotions is a delivered category, separate from spam. Seed results describe those accounts and that send, so compare equivalent runs rather than treating one result as a guarantee for every subscriber.
Yes. Use the dashboard for scheduled checks, or use the API to create a test, retrieve its seed addresses and marker, send through your provider, and read the provider results.
