Opening Email

Recommended Posts

I send newsletters through a service and they provide a report of how many people opened the email.  I was perplexed as to how they could tell until I discovered a 1X1 blank gif at the bottom of the newsletter.

any ideas as to how that picture could ("insert into...?

 

I would like to track who opens email as well.

 

Thank you!

That URL will point to a server side script, which will add info to a DB then send back a 1 pixel blank image. This won't be 100% accurate though, as some email clients (like gmail) don't show images by default...probably for this particular reason
