Custom proxy
The Custom Proxy feature in DitLead allows you to route your email traffic through a dedicated proxy server, isolating your sending activity and improving email deliverability.
By using a SOCKS5 proxy with mailing access, you can add an extra layer of isolation, privacy, control, and reputation management to your outreach campaigns. These ultimately improves deliverability.
What is a Custom Proxy?
A Custom Proxy acts as an intermediary between DitLead and the recipient's email servers, masking your IP address and isolating your email activities from other users. This can significantly boost your sender reputation and help avoid spam filters.
Why Use a Custom Proxy?
Activity Isolation: Keeps your email traffic separate from other users, minimizing the risk of shared IP issues.
Improved Deliverability: By isolating your email traffic, you maintain a clean sending reputation.
Enhanced Privacy: A custom proxy adds a layer of security by masking your IP address.
Increased Control: You have more control over the IP and routing, allowing for better monitoring and management.
Requirements for Custom Proxy
Proxy Type: The proxy must be a SOCKS5 proxy.
