Automated Mandrill Daily Send Volume Digest

Every morning, WebRun opens Mandrill, reads yesterday's transactional send volume, bounce rate, and rejection count, posts the numbers to Teams so the engineering team starts the day informed, and creates a Trello card only when the bounce rate is above normal and needs a closer look.

In short

How do I track Mandrill transactional email volume and bounce rate daily?

Every morning, WebRun reads yesterday's Mandrill send volume, bounce rate, and rejection count, posts the numbers to Teams so engineering starts the day informed, and creates a Trello card only when the bounce rate is above normal. Transactional sending problems get flagged the next morning instead of after a customer notices a missing email.

  • Bounce rate problems get flagged the next morning, not weeks later
  • Send volume is visible daily without opening Mandrill first
  • Only real spikes create a Trello card, not routine noise

Questions, answered

Does it pause transactional sending?

No. WebRun only reports the numbers and flags a high bounce rate with a Trello card. Pausing sending stays a decision for engineering.

What counts as a high bounce rate?

A rate clearly above what that sending domain normally shows, not one fixed number applied to every account.

Can I see trends over more than one day?

The Teams channel keeps a running history of daily posts, so scrolling back shows how volume and bounce rate have moved over time.

Put this on autopilot.
