(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.

Issue The URL for the landing page shows as "https" even though you do not have SSL set up on your Marketo instance, causing the browser to display a "Not Secure" warning. Solution This can happen if the primary domain and DNS are SSL secure, but Marketo is not. For instance, if your primary domain is "mycompany.com" (SSL secure) then the DNS, which is also SSL secure, will push down the "https" transfer protocol down to all the CNAMEs on that DNS. This will force the Marketo landing page using the CNAME to use "https" in the URL, even though it is not secure. There are two ways to resolve this: Work with your IT department to see if there is a non-SSL option for your DNS Purchase SSL for your Marketo instance so that both your primary domain and your Marketo pages are SSL secure. If you would like to add SSL to your Marketo instance, please contact your Account Manager to see about adding that to your subscription.

Here are a few strategies for finding and handling your competitors if they get to your website or in your lead database. Finding your competitors The best ways to find your competitors are form fill-outs and inferred data. You can use filters of these fields to find matching leads already in your lead database. Use the Data Value Changes trigger with these fields to catch these leads as they enter your system. Inferred company This is the best way to spot anonymous competitors visiting your web site. Try using the Inferred Company field to see if Marketo identified them by their IP address information. Email address There's a chance your competitors use their company email address when filling out your form. Search for the domains of your competitors using the Email Address filter with the "contains" operator. Company name Like email address, this is a straightforward way to catch your competitors as they enter their information in your forms. Handling competitors You have a few choices for handling your competitors once you find them. Blacklist them Changing these leads' Blacklisted flag to true will ensure that they don't receive any more emails from you. This is a good way to keep those leads in your database and ensure that they're not part of your email campaigns. This campaign will spot those leads and blacklist them should they appear: Smart List: Trigger on Data Value Changes where Email Address contains [your competitors domains] Flow: Change Data Value -- Blacklisted to true Send an alert You may find it useful to get alerted when your competitors visit your website. Try this campaign: Smart List: Trigger on "Visit Web Page" Filter on "Inferred Company contains [your competitors]" Flow: Send Alert with an email that includes a Send Alert Info token. Schedule: Change the Qualification Rules to 1 per day But don't delete them Deleting these leads was probably your first reaction, but you probably shouldn't. Instead, look at their Activity Log to find out what pages and offers they were viewing. Also if they return to your site, their subsequent activity will be added to that activity log (as opposed to added to a new, anonymous lead).

Issue: I need to use a comma in my value list, but Marketo uses the comma as the break between different values. Select One, Not at this time, Yes, within 30 days, Yes, within 60 days Solution: Begin your value list with "\|||\" and use "|||" instead of a comma between each value. \|||\Select One|||Not at this time|||Yes, within 30 days|||Yes, within 60 days Nice work! You can now use commas in the text of your Value List.

Issue The deep link in a Marketo email does not redirect to the designated App. Solution By design in Marketo, when tracking is enabled for a link, the link will be wrapped with a tracking link like 'http://test.website.com/[unique sequence of characters]'. So when a tracked link is clicked, the link 'http://test.website.com/[unique sequence of characters]' is first loaded in a browser then redirects to the actual link in the same browser. Therefore, as some deep link configuration can depend on the actual link first loading, a tracked link in Marketo does not redirect to the App. One workaround here is to disable Marketo tracking link so that the deep link will redirect to the App. However, the trade-off of this is that the click link activity will not be recorded in Marketo.

When a lead fills out a Marketo form, some validation messages are automatically built in. "This field is required." "Please enter a valid email address." "Please enter a valid phone number." "Please select a value for this field" "Please wait" (appears after the lead submits the form). You may wish to customize these messages either because you are creating a form in a different language or simply because you wish to change the wording. 1. Open up your form for editing. 2. Select the language you wish to use for error messages on your form. If you don't see your language you can Customize the Text of Form Validation Messages. That's it. Leads will now see error messages in the language of your choice.

Issue A Smart List created to track Opened Email activity does not match the Opened count on an Email Performance report Solution Smart Lists specifically track "Open Email" activities in the activity log. "Open Email" is logged when a single-pixel tracking image is downloaded into the email, but some email clients do not download images by default, so it is technically possible for an email to record a clicked link activity without logging an open. Email Performance Reports have a backfill logic to compensate for this. Rule #1: Each email activity record is set to one, and only one, of the following: Delivered, Hard Bounced, Soft Bounced, or Pending. Rule #2: If the email record shows Opened, then it is counted as Delivered. Rule #3: If the email record shows Clicked Email or Unsubscribed, then it is Opened and therefore counted as Delivered. Rule #4: If the email is Opened, then bounces are ignored. If the email has not been opened, Hard Bounced "wins" if the email record also shows Soft Bounced or Delivered. NOTE: As a result of this logic , a metric could potentially count an event (e.g. Delivered) that doesn’t have a corresponding activity log item. This can cause discrepancies in the results when compared to smart lists using email filters.

Issue: After changing your email template, your associated emails are now blank or the main template is showing. Why does this happen? This happens because the editor cannot associate the unique "mktedtable" divs from the template to the email. When creating a template, each section that can be changed will have a class of "mktEditable" and a unique "ID". <div class=”mktEditable” id=”1body”> your editable content</div> Solution: To fix your current emails, preview the current approved email and verify there is infact content. 1.discard draft 2.edit draft, it will still look blank until step 3 is complete 3.replace html with no changes, the html content should show again. 4.approve the email Don't change anything and click OK. Your orginal email content will be restored. Caution: This only works if you did not approve the email when it was blank. Note about the blank "template": When using the blank template in general, it means you intend to address your email at the main email level. Adding style to the blank template invalidates it as a blank template. The best practice would be to create a new template and add your custom code.

Issue Description There is a discrepancy for certain emails between Email Insights and Email Performance Report. The data (e.g. sent, delivered, opened and clicked) are significantly lower in Email Insights for the emails as compared to the Email Performance Report for the same emails. Issue Resolution There is most likely a discrepancy because at the time Email Insights was first enabled "you’ll have four weeks of historical Email data in addition to all new email activity". There was no request to Marketo support to upload historic data beyond four weeks which would have included data for the emails above. This request relates to the notes below from the article: "We’ll give you a four-week period before you can request Marketo Support to upload your data" Supplement: Email Insights Launch Process - Marketo Docs - Product Documentation The solution is to request that Marketo Support backfill the report data so you have data for Email Insights beyond the four weeks. Who This Solution Applies To Customers using Email Insight

If you are encountering issues with importing to certain fields, it is recommended that you create an import template. To make sure your field names are correct for an import, start by exporting a small list from your lead database. You can selected your required fields via the column chooser by right clicking a field in your list. Then select Export list under List Actions, then select Visible columns or All columns in your export. In the exported .csv file check the first row; your correctly named fields should be listed in there. You can now copy the field names to your import list, or copy the cells from your list to this exported .csv. You should now be able to import without issue. Please note: if you select All columns then the exported .csv file contains system fields that cannot be re-imported to. Please see the related article: Ignored Fields and Blocked Field Updates During List Import

Issue: You or your sales reps are getting an error when editing your leads or contact records in Salesforce saying "The record you were editing was modified by Account Marketo during your edit session". Similar to this: This error will usually occur in Salesforce when you are in the Edit page in while at the same time the Marketo sync is updating that same record by our periodic API sync. While this error occurs very rarely, and usually by performing mass updates from Marketo (usually by batch campaigns). Resolution: Here are some steps you can take from a Marketo perspective to resolve or significantly reduce the chances of this error occuring: 1. Change the process that you use to update records in Salesforce - You can successfully reduce this error by using Inline editting (by double clicking on the individual field on the record) as opposed to doing a mass update of multiple fields on 1 record (by using the Edit button). Inline Editing - As the screenshot below shows, this done by double clicking on the individual field on your record then updating the field and then pressing the "Save" button or double pressing on the Enter key on your keyboard: Mass Editing - this is done by first pressing the "Edit" button on the record's detail page, which will then take you the the Edit page where you can mass update multiple records then press the "Save" button: 2. Increase the Salesforce sync interval time - Another option to reduce the the possibility or receiving this error is to reduce the number of times that Marketo syncs with Salesforce. This option in effect increases the time between Marketo and salesforce syncs. (The default is 5 minutes.) The downside to this option is that updates made in Marketo will take a longer to sync to Salesforce and vice versa. If you want to proceed with this option, you will need to contact Marketo support to get your sync wait time increased.

Note: Please ensure that you have access to an experienced Web developer. Marketo Technical Support is not set up to assist with troubleshooting code. The listOperation SOAP API call allows for the ability to interact with static lists (My Lists) in the Lead Database. The supported operations are adding a lead to list (ADDTOLIST), checking if a lead is a member of the list (ISMEMBEROFLIST), and removing a lead from a list (REMOVEFROMLIST) Note, there is no operation to create a new list (or delete) via the SOAP API. The list must be created beforehand in the Lead Database. In the examples, the list is named "Static List".

To customize the validation message, you can add javascript to the template of the landing page the form is on. Unlike default language settings on a form, customized messages work only on landing pages using the modified template. Note: Please ensure that you have access to an experienced Web developer. Marketo Technical Support is not set up to assist with troubleshooting code. Open up your landing page template for editing. For all languages you wish to modify, paste this javascript code (with your modifications) at the end of your template before the </body> tag. For more languages, see this javascript file. <script type="text/javascript"> Mkto.messages = { English : { required : "This field is required", selectRequired : "Please select a value for this field", emailInvalid : "Please enter a valid email address", telephoneInvalid : "Please enter a valid telephone number", pleaseWait : "Please wait" }, French : { required : "Ce champ est requis", selectRequired : "Sélectionnez une valeur pour ce champ", emailInvalid : "Entrez une adresse e-mail valide", telephoneInvalid : "Entrez un numéro de téléphone valide", pleaseWait : "Veuillez patienter" }, German : { required : "Dieses Feld ist erforderlich", selectRequired : "Wählen Sie einen Wert für dieses Feld", emailInvalid : "Geben Sie eine gültige E-Mail-Adresse ein", telephoneInvalid : "Geben Sie eine gültige Telefonnummer ein", pleaseWait : "Bitte warten" } }; </script> Tip: You can include multiple languages in a single template. The language selection on the form will determine the language that gets shown.

Marketo recommends keeping the FT (First Touch) and MT (Multi-Touch) in separate reports . Though they are attribution metrics, FT and MT use different measures to derive pipeline and revenue attribution. One should not try to compare FT and MT metrics and having them in the same reports may cause confusion. Step 1: In RCE, Program Opportunity Analysis, identify the Program and Opportunity of interest. If verifying FT, pull in relevant FT metrics. Ditto for MT. Also pull in Opportunity Closed and Opportunity Stage. The combination will tell you if the status of opportunity (open, won, lost) - which does affect attribution. Step 2: For the opportunity, find out the lead(s) associated to that opportunity and opportunity create/close date, status information. One way is to get this information is to do so in SFDC. In SFDC, search for that Opportunity and scroll down to the Contact Role section to identify the associated leads (contact). Other opportunity information should also be available. Another way is in RCE, Opportunity Analysis area. Filter Opportunity Name to the opportunity of interest. Pull in # of Opportunities and Lead Name. You can also find out oppty create/closed date, status in this area. Step 3: Find out acquisition and success status/dates for the leads in the program In Marketing Activities, go to the program and click on Member. Search for the lead by name. The column Acquired By and Success will tell you if the lead is acquired by the program and/or achieved success, respectively. If the lead is acquired, to get Acquisition Date for this lead, in the lead grid, choose column Acquisition Date If the lead achieved success, to get Success date: Go to Lead details, click on Activity Log tab Search for program name and filter on activity type 'Change Status in Progression' Locate the FIRST success activity when a lead changed to a successful status. RCA only counts the first success. The activity date is the success date. Step 4: Evaluate if program is qualified for attribution for the program The combination of Acquisition program/date, success status/date, opportunity create/close dates and opportunity status will help determine FT/MT attribution. The rules of attributions is documented in Product Docs. With all the information gathered, you can now determine if the program is qualified for attribution for this opportunity. Again, this technique is to verify if the program should get some attribution and doesn't necessarily give you the exact units and dollars.
