Why Email Warmup Matters in 2026
Gmail and Outlook have tightened their spam filters dramatically. In 2024, Google began enforcing a strict 0.1% spam rate threshold for bulk senders, and Microsoft followed with similar changes. Cold email senders who skip warmup are seeing inbox placement rates under 30% on new domains.
Email warmup solves this by building sender reputation before you send at scale — using real mailboxes generating real engagement signals that ISPs use to classify your domain as trustworthy.
