Inbox placement checks

One row, in depth: what each tool does, the verified numbers, and who each suits.

Dripify details read from its pricing page, FAQ, features pages and help centre on 21 October 2026.

Warmerly

A placement test per mailbox; accuracy is limited, as there is no dedicated Gmail or Outlook seed list yet.

The short answer

Inbox placement checks, in one look.

Warmerly runs a real placement test with a score per target, with limited accuracy because it has no dedicated Gmail or Outlook seed list yet. We found no inbox placement test on Dripify's pricing page, features pages or the help pages we read. Its help article on safe sending gives bounce and spam-rate guidance for you to monitor yourself. Last checked 22 October 2026.

Warmerly scores inbox 100, promotions 60, spam 10 and missing 0. With no dedicated Gmail or Outlook seeds yet, a test measures delivery into Warmerly's own mailboxes and says so. Dripify's article quotes Google's advice of 0.1% for spam rates.

How Warmerly does it

Warmerly, in detail.

A real test with a score for each target, run on demand or daily. Its limit is where the targets are: until real Gmail or Outlook seeds exist, a test measures delivery into Warmerly's own mailboxes and says so.

01

What a test does

It sends one message from the mailbox's own SMTP to up to 4 targets (2 on the same provider, 2 on another). After a wait of 30 seconds on demand, or 90 seconds in the daily sweep, it checks INBOX, Promotions, Spam and Junk over IMAP and scores each result: inbox 100, promotions 60, spam 10, missing 0. The scores are averaged.

02

No dedicated seed list yet

Real measurement needs seed mailboxes at Gmail, Outlook or Yahoo in the placement_seeds table. The doc's check on 2026-10-15 found that table has never held a real row in production, so every test falls back to Warmerly's own warmup-pool mailboxes.

03

Why a degraded result is not a measurement

Warmerly's own mailboxes accept essentially everything, so a degraded score is about 100 whatever the sender's real performance. In code a degraded run never writes health, is excluded from the spam score and the warmup quota, and the account page shows a Limited accuracy note. A trend is shown only when the two latest tests are the same kind.

04

When it runs, and how many

On demand from the mailbox Health tab (about 45 to 60 seconds), and daily for up to 5 mailboxes per sweep, skipping any tested in the last 24 hours. Monthly test allowances are 3 on Free, 5 on Starter, 25 on Growth and 100 on Agency.

05

Placement stays out of automatic stops

Warmerly's reputation job pauses sending on bounce rate (7 per cent) and undeliverable rate (30 per cent), each after at least 25 sends. It does not use placement, because the only placement signal available is the seed test and those seeds have been unreliable.

How Dripify does it

Dripify, in detail.

No placement test is listed. Its help centre gives targets for bounce and spam rates and leaves the monitoring to you.

01

Not listed

Neither the pricing page nor the features pages list a placement or seed test.

04

A deliverability claim

Its email verifier feature says it can improve deliverability by up to 99%. No baseline or method is given, and it concerns verified addresses, not placement.

05

Analytics instead of placement

The FAQ says its analytics page covers daily usage, recent account activity and campaign performance, and the home page says its LinkedIn analytics also review email activity. Neither describes a spam-folder or inbox reading.

06

Addresses are verified, not mailboxes tested

Its email finder checks that an address is found and verified before a credit is used. That says whether an address is likely to accept mail. It does not say where your own message will land.

07

Sending is not metered

The pricing page says sending is not metered on any plan, and credits limit email finder lookups only. So there is no plan-level sending cap, and none of the checks we found slows sending down for you.

08

Email runs beside LinkedIn actions

The FAQ and the home page say email steps sit in the same sequence as LinkedIn actions. The deliverability tooling described anywhere on those pages is the verifier and the help article's guidance.

What Dripify does not say

We looked, and found no statement on these. That is about its published pages only, not about the product.

  • A placement or seed-list test
  • Any inbox or spam folder reading
  • Whether you can see the spam rate of your own sends
  • A way to add your own seed addresses
  • Any automatic slow-down when bounces rise

In practice

What it means for you.

Our reading of the facts above. Not a promise, and not the only reasonable reading.

1

A limited test is still more than none

But read the 'Limited accuracy' note: a degraded score is near 100 whatever your real placement.

2

Use spam and bounce rates too

Dripify's own advice, 0.1% spam and 2% bounce, applies to any sender.

3

What 7% means after 25 sends

Warmerly's pause threshold needs at least 25 sends. Two bounces in 25 is 8%, over the 7% line, so the second bounce is enough to pause. One bounce in 25 is 4% and does not. Dripify's 2% guidance would be one bounce in 50 sends, so both rules ask you to treat the first handful of bounces as a signal.

4

Five tests a month on Starter

Starter allows 5 placement tests a month and has 5 mailboxes, so one test per mailbox covers a month. The daily sweep tests up to 5 mailboxes and skips any tested in the last 24 hours, which is separate from the allowance on demand. Dripify has no equivalent to count.

5

A score of 100 is not good news by itself

Because the fallback targets are Warmerly's own warmup mailboxes, which accept almost everything, a degraded result comes out near 100 whatever your real performance. The account page labels it limited. Treat it as a smoke test, and look at bounce and undeliverable rates for the real signal.

Who it suits

Pick the one that fits.

Warmerly

Warmerly is the better fit if

  • You want a placement check next to the mailbox, with its limits stated
  • You want a quick check that a message can leave the mailbox and be read back over IMAP
  • You want the limits of that check stated plainly rather than hidden
Dripify

Dripify is the better fit if

  • You do not need a placement test and will watch bounces yourself
  • You send mainly on LinkedIn and email is a small step in a sequence
  • You already track deliverability in another tool
Questions
Does Dripify test inbox placement?

We found no such feature on the pages we read.

How accurate is Warmerly's placement test?

Limited today: with no dedicated Gmail or Outlook seed list, a test measures delivery into Warmerly's own warmup-pool mailboxes and says so on the account page.

Does Dripify show my spam rate?

The help article quotes Google's advice to stay below 0.1% and avoid 0.3% or higher, but we found no place where Dripify measures complaints for you.

Does Warmerly stop sending when placement drops?

No. Its reputation job pauses on bounce rate (7%) and undeliverable rate (30%), each after at least 25 sends. Placement is deliberately left out because the seed signal has been unreliable.

Can I run a placement test on the Free plan?

Yes, 3 a month. Starter allows 5, Growth 25 and Agency 100. On the current fallback the result is flagged as limited.
