(Article Updated - August 2024) Overview A blocklist is a database of IP addresses or domains that have been associated with the sending of unsolicited commercial email or spam. Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and business email networks use information from blocklists to filter out unwanted email. As a result there can be a drop to inbox delivery rates if the IPs or domains involved with sending email are listed on a blocklist. Marketo’s Email Delivery and Compliance team monitors blocklist activity on our IPs and domains daily. When an impactful listing occurs, we reach out to the blocklist, attempt to identify the sender that triggered it, and work with the blocklist organization to get the listing resolved. There are thousands of blocklists, most will not have a significant impact on your delivery rates. Below, we have compiled a list of the blocklists that commonly appear across our sender ecosystem. Each blocklist has been grouped into a top tier (Tier I) by most impactful, to the bottom least impactful tier (Tier III). These may have little to no impact across our sender network. Tier I Blocklist Spamhaus (SBL) Impact: Spamhaus is the only blocklist that we categorize as a Tier I for a reason: it has by far the greatest impact on delivery. It is the most well-respected and widely used blocklist in the world. A listing at Spamhaus will have a negative effect on your ability to deliver emails to your customer’s inbox and can cause bounce rates of over 50%. Evidence suggests that most of the top North American ISPs use Spamhaus to inform blocking decisions. How it works: Unlike many blocklists, Spamhaus lists senders manually. This means they are proactively watching sender activity, collecting data, and base listings on a number of variables. Most commonly senders are listed for mailing to spam trap addresses that Spamhaus owns. Sometimes Spamhaus will list senders based on recipient feedback as well. Next Steps: Please note that every Spamhaus email can be quite different depending on the information provided and the nature of the listing . Because Spamhaus has multiple types of listings, the remediation steps are based on which type of blocklisting has occurred. We have listed the most common types to affect Marketo customers, from most to least impactful. Impact can range from a full block of top severity, to a partial block that is less severe (CSS Data, DBL). If remediation isn’t performed and the problem not addressed, these listings can increase in severity and turn into a full blocklisting. Spamhaus Blocklistings Types SBL (full blocklisting) Considered the most impactful. Remediation steps: Our team monitors closely for Spamhaus listings. Once alerted to the listing, we send an email notifying the customer, and reach out to the Spamhaus contact to start the remediation process. Only a Marketo delivery team member should be in direct correspondence with the Spamhaus contact, to speak on behalf of the customer, and to relay their questions and instructions, ensuring quick resolution and reduced impact. Senders that trigger this listing on a shared IP range will be moved to a more isolated, penalty range (IPB), so as not to impact the other shared senders. Those affected on a Dedicated IP, only impact their own sending and will not be moved. However, depending on the severity of the issue, our team may need to revoke a customer’s ability to send any emails until full resolution. The listing will last until Spamhaus is satisfied that the offending sender has taken the appropriate steps to mitigate the problem. SBL CSS Customers are alerted of the listing with an email containing all the information needed to immediately begin the remediation process. This is part of an automated trigger listing, that allows for a customer to delist directly on the Spamhaus website, after they’ve completed remediation. Remediation steps: Customers will go to the Spamhaus IP lookup website, at https://check.spamhaus.org, where they can check on the status of their IP and continue to monitor it in real time, until it is no longer listed there. Follow the remediation and delisting instructions provided, and check for specific details in the blocklist notification email. DBL (Domain blocklisting) Customers will receive an email notification alerting of the company domain being listed. The email will contain specific information to help narrow down and identify which email source likely triggered it within Marketo. It’s important to note that any email sent from outside of Marketo, that contained the company domain, is suspect. This means, if the sender uses multiple IPs and/multiple email platforms, then any of those could be the source. Remediation steps: Follow the detailed instructions in the email, which will also provide a link to the Spamhaus Domain reputation checker webpage, to check the real time listing status of the affected domain. Once the email source is identified and cause addressed, this customer will follow the online instructions to request to be delisted. Tier II Blocklist SpamCop Impact: SpamCop is not used by any of the major North American ISPs to inform blocking decisions, but it makes it to the Tier II list because it can have a significant impact on B2B email campaigns. SpamCop is considered a Tier I one blocklist for B2B marketers but a Tier II for B2C marketers. SpamCop is a dynamic IP blocklist, that can affect a single IP or a subset of IPs Typically, the block will automatically lift within one business day, but can take longer for relisted IPs. To have triggered a SpamCop listing likely means the sender has a list management problem that should be addressed. How it works: SpamCop lists IPs for one of two reasons: Either the email hit SpamCop spam trap addresses OR A SpamCop user has reported the email unwanted. Most of SpamCop’s spam traps are previously valid addresses that have not been active for 12 months or longer. Remediation steps: If you are seeing a significant number of bouncing emails caused by a SpamCop blocked IP but aren’t sure if your email activity triggered the listing, first identify whether you are sending on a shared sender network or not. If sending from a shared IP range when this occurs, you or any other customer sending from the same network may have contributed to the IP block. This IP block will automatically get dropped within a business day. For those on a Dedicated IP that trigger a listing, refer to the above remediation steps and resources, to address the list management issue. Tier III Blocklist (Low/ No impact ) These are considered the lowest tier and therefore cause the least impact across the Marketo sender ecosystem. Some of these blocklists were more impactful at one time, while others are only impactful based on the sender region (Manitu). Others still can suddenly flare up (Lashback). There are also many blocklists that are ignored (0spam), and are not taken seriously because they do not provide any means to delist once on the list (NoSolicitado) or that they charge money to have the listing removed ( UCEPROTECT ). The pay-to-delist model is not well respected in the email industry. When using blocklist tool checkers, such as MXToolBox, many blocklists will appear, but very few are relevant. Here is our selection of Blocklists you may come across that are least impactful: Project Honey Pot SpamAssassin URIBL/SURBL DrMX PSBL 0spam HostKarma Ascams ZapBL Barracuda Trendmicro Inc. Cloudmark Proofpoint Invaluement ISP Blocklists Some ISPs use internal blocklists to make blocking decisions. Examples include AOL, Yahoo, Gmail, Outlook and Hotmail. If your IP is being blocked by one of these networks, and those networks have a large presence in your lists, a block of this kind could have a noticeable negative impact on delivery. Marketo monitors for significant ISP blocks. Those experiencing deliverability issues with emails not making it to the Inbox and bulking in the spam folder may benefit from additional services with our Email Delivery Consultants. Remediation Steps: Email Delivery Compliance Team works to resolve any ISP blocks. ISP blocks are are usually resolved or lifted within less than 24 hours of a delisting request. Customers experiencing significant blocks for Microsoft domains (outlook.com, live.com, microsoft.com), can submit a request to the delivery team to seek mitigation on their behalf.

Additional Documentation How many total named accounts can I have within Marketo TAM? There is no limit from a product perspective. How many account lists can be created? 1,000 How many Named Accounts can be added to the Account List? 500 Is Marketo TAM Workspace specific? No. Named Accounts are visible to all the Workspaces. But Lead Partition rules are still honored. Which means you can see a named account in multiple Workspaces but depending on the Lead Partition rules, you can only see leads belonging to the corresponding Workspace within that named account. Which lead attributes are used for Lead-to-Account Matching? It is based on 3 lead attributes: Email Domain, IP Address and Company Name. We convert Email Domain and IP address to the Company Names and match all 3 to identify strong and weak matches. How are strong lead matches to Named Accounts determined? When the Company Name matches 3 out of 3, or 2 out of 3 times, then we consider this a strong match. How are weak lead matches to Named Accounts determined? When the Company Name matches only 1 out of 3 times, then we consider this a weak match. How can you make Marketo TAM automatically associate leads to Named Accounts? When you create a Named Account from any of the Discover grids, Marketo creates rules which then going forward are used to do automatic association of leads from the company to Named Accounts. Do I see all the CRM accounts in the Discover CRM grid? Yes, all the CRM accounts that are synced in Marketo show up here Does the number of CRM accounts match the number of CRM accounts shown in Discover CRM grid? Not necessarily. Marketo ABM does light de-duplication by CRM account names. First, we remove company suffixes before matching to company names. (Ex: Co, Corp, Corporation, Gmbh, Inc, Incorporated, LLC, LLP, LP, Ltd, PA, PC, PLC, PLLC). Second, we merge companies or CRM accounts in Marketo with duplicate names (not case sensitive) What does the Discover Marketo Companies grid show? This grid shows all the CRM accounts as well as Marketo Companies that we found in the Marketo lead database. What happens if I delete Named Accounts? None of the leads associated with the Named Accounts will be deleted. You can always go back to the Discover Companies grid and re-create the Named Account. Can I merge duplicate companies or CRM accounts manually in Marketo? Yes. You can use Discover Marketo Companies to do that. How is the week-over-week engagement over time chart determined and how frequently it is calculated? We take daily account scores and show the maximum account score for that week. This chart is calculated every 8 hours. How is the week-over-week pipeline chart determined and how frequently it is calculated? We add the total sum for the 'Amount' of all opportunities except closed-won and closed-lost. We show opportunity amount on last day of the week. This chart is calculated every 24 hours. How is the week-over-week revenue chart determined and how frequently it is calculated? We add the total sum of the 'Amount' of all the closed-won opportunities on a weekly basis. This chart is calculated every 24 hours. Does Marketo TAM backfill data for engagement over time charts? No. Engagement is tracked from the time Named Accounts are created. We don't backfill. How far back can I see engagement over time, pipeline and revenue charts? 90 Days. How far back are email and web activities calculated for? 30 Days. How is pipeline determined? Pipeline is calculated as a sum total of 'Amount' for all open opportunities except closed-won and closed-lost in CRM accounts. How frequently are account scores calculated? Every 30 minutes. How is Currency calculated? Currency is the Subscription currency. Marketo ABM does not covert the currency. Does Marketo TAM support Account hierarchy? Not in this current version, but it is planned for future versions.

Included in this article Lead-to-Account Matching Why aren't leads automatically associating with my named accounts? Why do the incorrect leads get associated with my Named Accounts? Discover CRM Accounts or Discover Marketo Companies Why do I see fewer numbers of CRM accounts in the Discover CRM account grid than in my CRM system? Why can't I see the new contacts and opportunities automatically associated with my Named Account that I created based on that CRM account? I can't see any company names in Discover CRM grid or Discover Companies grid. I have a bunch of leads from a specific company, but I don't see this company in the Discover grid. Top Accounts Why I can't see any named accounts in my Top Named Account list? Top People Why can't I see people with stars and flames at account level? Interesting Moments Why don't I see Interesting Moments at account level? Email Activities Why can't I see Email metrics such as number of emails sent at account level? User License Why can't my users see the new ABM Tile? User Permission Why can't I create/edit/delete a Named Account, Account Lists etc. Logos Why can't I see the Logo for my Named Account? Additional Documentation Lead-to-Account Matching Why aren't leads automatically associating with my named accounts? Because the named accounts have not been created from the Discover Company grid or Discover CRM grid. Marketo TAM only supports automatic association when you create Named Accounts from Discover grids. Why do the incorrect leads get associated with my Named Accounts? The most common cause of this is an error made associating the company to the incorrect Named Account. The Support team has the ability to delete the rule for further association of the wrong leads to accounts. Contact Marketo Support for more detailed information. Discover CRM Accounts or Discover Marketo Companies Why do I see fewer numbers of CRM accounts in the Discover CRM account grid than in my CRM system? Marketo TAM de-duplicates the CRM accounts based on their account name. (e.g. the 2 CRM Accounts "Acme" and "acme" would show as 1 company in discover grids). Why can't I see the new contacts and opportunities automatically associated with my Named Account that I created based on that CRM account? Make sure the Named Account was created from the Discover CRM grid. Make sure the CRM account name in the CRM system has not changed. If it has been changed, then go back to the Discover CRM grid and associate the new CRM record in this grid with the existing Named Account. I can't see any company names in Discover CRM grid or Discover Companies grid. This will require help from the Support team. Contact Marketo Support for more detailed information. I have a bunch of leads from a specific company, but I don't see this company in the Discover grid. It can take a few minutes up to a few hours to process the new leads in the lead database before the company is proposed on the Discover grid. Check if the leads were recently created in the system. The company name on the leads could be different than the company name in the Discover grid. One of the databases we use matches companies to domains used, but another one may have a different company listed, which will get sorted out as the databases update the records. This issue could also be caused by information from those leads coming from an ISP, or if they have public email domains (e.g. Gmail, Yahoo). We don't show these company names in the Discover grid. Top Accounts Why I can't see any named accounts in my Top Named Account list? TAM won't show Named Accounts in Top Accounts with ZERO pipeline or ZERO account score. Top People Why can't I see people with stars and flames at account level? This will happen if your subscription doesn't have Sales Insight enabled Interesting Moments Why don't I see Interesting Moments at account level? This will happen if your subscription doesn't have Sales Insight enabled Email Activities Why can't I see Email metrics such as number of emails sent at account level? This will happen if your subscription doesn't have Email Insights enabled User License Why can't my users see the new TAM Tile? Each user must have an TAM license issued in order to access the tile. User Permission Why can't I create/edit/delete a Named Account, Account Lists etc. This will happen if the user doesn't have permissions enabled to create/edit/delete Named Accounts.

Issue You are experiencing slow processing of campaigns, smart lists, and reports. Solution There are three key components that can slow down an instance: Number of trigger campaigns: Trigger campaigns are always on, always listening. If there are 50 campaigns triggering at the same time, all the 50 triggers will be in queue, slowing down your processing and routing inside Marketo. Solution: Reduce the number of Triggers. Convert some of the triggers to batches: Batches also run all the flow steps for every lead at once, instead of serially, which reduces total processing time. Complexity of smart lists: The more complex a smart list, the harder it is for the system to figure it out, which increases backend processing and even creates campaign failures from timeouts. Solution: Reduce the number of nested smart lists called in a smart list. Whenever you ask Marketo to call another Smart List, it has to wait until all of the other smart lists finish, before putting together the final counts. Instead of Marketo looking for the list and running it, just put the filters in the trigger itself. Volume of Leads: With regular cleaning and good systems design, it is fairly easy to keep your system running fast. Reduce the number of leads that can flow through with filters. Clean up the inactive leads at regular intervals.

(Ex: Co, Corp, Corporation, Gmbh, Inc, Incorporated, LLC, LLP, LP, Ltd, PA, PC, PLC, PLLC). Second, we merge companies or CRM accounts in Marketo with duplicate names (not case sensitive) What does the Discover Marketo Companies grid show? This grid shows all the CRM accounts as well as Marketo Companies that we found in the Marketo lead database. What happens if I delete Named Accounts? None of the leads associated with the Named Accounts will be deleted. You can always go back to the Discover Companies grid and re-create the Named Account. Can I merge duplicate companies or CRM accounts manually in Marketo? Yes. You can use Discover Marketo Companies to do that. How is the week-over-week engagement over time chart determined and how frequently it is calculated? We take daily account scores and show the maximum account score for that week. This chart is calculated every 8 hours. How is the week-over-week pipeline chart determined and how frequently it is calculated? We add the total sum for the 'Amount' of all opportunities except closed-won and closed-lost. We show opportunity amount on last day of the week. This chart is calculated every 24 hours. How is the week-over-week revenue chart determined and how frequently it is calculated? We add the total sum of the 'Amount' of all the closed-won opportunities on a weekly basis. This chart is calculated every 24 hours. Does Marketo ABM backfill data for engagement over time charts? No. Engagement is tracked from the time Named Accounts are created. We don't backfill. How far back can I see engagement over time, pipeline and revenue charts? 90 Days. How far back are email and web activities calculated for? 30 Days. How is pipeline determined? Pipeline is calculated as a sum total of 'Amount' for all open opportunities except closed-won and closed-lost in CRM accounts. How frequently are account scores calculated? Every 30 minutes. How is Currency calculated? Currency is the Subscription currency. Marketo ABM does not covert the currency. Does Marketo ABM support Account hierarchy? Not in this current version, but it is planned for future versions.
