Hmm, at what frequency does your email sending cron job trigger? You can also do the following: [💧 Is there a way to make a 'drip' campaign in Mautic?

Thanks a lot. Some mails are heading to spam. Don’t know the % though. I am using Office365 SMTP. Do you think, warming up and increasing daily up to 5K a day will help heading inbox? Or changing SMTP/ip rotation is needed? ---

> [@scking](#): > > I am using Office365 SMTP You might as well use a self-hosted mail server (which is my preferred method and also cheaper, at least, for me) or go with a reliable cloud-based SMTP provider e.g SendGrid, MailGun, SES. > [@scking](#): > > Or changing SMTP/ip rotation is needed? This is not needed. You can send me a p.m if you have a very specific use case. ---

> [@scking](#): > > Do I need any other cron job for campaign scheduling (at a relative time period)? No, It would trigger the cron job in whatever minutes you set per day. You can give it a try.
