How does MailTracker work?
MailTracker adds an invisible one-pixel image inside the email to track single emails sent in Gmail to a unique recipient. The image is loaded when the recipient opens the email, letting the sender know the opening status.
We also built MailTracker with your privacy in mind: we never access or store your emails' subject, recipients, location, or content.
Unlike many other tools, MailTracker doesn’t require permission to read and manage your emails in Gmail. Only the time(s) the email was opened and the type of device (computer, mobile, or tablet) are available in the tracking details.
💡MailTracker does not add a watermark or signature in the email, so the recipients won’t know the email is tracked.
