Since September 2026, every email sent individually through the API (transactional) can be followed up to its handover to the recipient's server.

1. The send returns an identifier

POST https://api.mailpro.com/v3/Send/Mail
Authorization: Bearer <your token>
→ 200  { "message": "Email queued", "id_single_send": 123456 }

With the Email API v2, POST /v2/send/sendmail.json likewise returns the identifier of the send.

2. Query the status

GET https://api.mailpro.com/v3/Send/123456/Status
Authorization: Bearer <your token>
→ 200
{
"id_single_send": 123456,
"email": "[email protected]",
"status": "delivered",
"date_planned": "2026-09-16T08:00:00",
"status_date": "2026-09-16T08:03:41",
"diag_code": "250 2.0.0 OK",
"bounce_type": null
}

In v2: GET /v2/send/123456/status.json (or .xml).

The statuses

  • queued — accepted, waiting to be sent; scheduled — planned for a later date
  • sent — handed over by our servers, no confirmation from the recipient yet
  • deferred — the recipient's server asked us to try again later (we retry)
  • deliveredaccepted by the recipient's server (diag_code = its answer)
  • bounced — rejected; bounce_type says whether it is permanent or temporary
  • not_found — unknown identifier or one that does not belong to your account

The delivered status appears about 5 minutes after the handover. It covers single sends (API v2, API v3, SMTP relay, automation) — not campaigns, which have their own statistics. Statuses are kept for 365 days.
