Best Practices

Always authenticate your sending domains (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) for better deliverability.
Provide both HTML and plain-text versions of your emails.
Keep attachments small or link to external hosted files.
Listen to webhooks for bounces and handle them properly by removing invalid emails from your lists.
