LC Email System

AUP Spam Blocking
We are introducing a new AUP Spam enforcement system to improve sender reputation and protect HighLevel’s email infrastructure. Currently, we only take AUP action for high hard-bounce rates (invalid emails, etc.). With this enhancement, we will also enforce AUP when emails are repeatedly blocked for spam-related reasons, even if Email Validation is enabled. Enforcement Logic: 3 spam strikes within a rolling 7-day window → Email sending will be permanently blocked for the sub-account. This block is independent of bounce/AUP hard bounce logic. The block persists even when Email Validation is enabled. Notifications: For every spam strike, we will send: In-app & email notifications to Agency Owner Notifications to sub-account users (same flow as current AUP bounce notifications) When permanently blocked (after 3 strikes), users receive a clear message explaining: Why they were blocked The spam violations detected Recommended next steps (improving content, domain setup, warmup, etc.) Why This Matters: This enhancement: Prevents continued sending of spammy content Protects domain & IP reputation for all HighLevel senders Reduces Microsoft/Gmail spam filtering Ensures higher inbox placement for compliant users Strengthens overall infrastructure integrity Rollout Notes: This will run alongside the existing AUP bounce enforcement. Spam detection will use full provider response messages. UI + notification updates will mirror AUP bounce experience.

Domain Warmup Should Actually Enforce Daily Limits (Or Stop Saying It Does)
PROBLEM: ----------- Domain warmup currently displays daily sending limits and shows messages saying "sending paused" when limits are reached, but it doesn't actually stop emails from sending. This creates a serious deliverability risk because users think they're protected when they're not. WHAT'S BROKEN: ----------- The UI misleads users: The Email Services page displays a message saying "sending was paused" after hitting the daily limit, but emails continue sending anyway Documentation contradicts itself: One section says "sending beyond the daily limit is allowed," while another says "the system pauses additional sending from that domain" Support gives wrong info: Both the AI chatbot and live support tell users that warmup will automatically pause sends at phase limits Users are set up to fail: We enable warmup thinking it's protecting our domains, then unknowingly blast thousands of emails on day one and destroy sender reputation WHY THIS MATTERS: ----------- Email deliverability isn't forgiving. One mistake can burn a domain permanently. If warmup is meant to protect sender reputation, it needs to actually stop sends at the phase limits, not just track them and hope users notice. SOLUTION: ----------- Either: * Make warmup actually enforce the daily limits (preferred), OR * Fix all documentation, support training, and UI messages to clearly state it's tracking-only and won't stop sends Right now, the feature actively misleads users into thinking they're protected when they're not. That's worse than not having the feature at all.
