Return Path

Return path refers to the destination email address used when sending a message, typically in the "reply-to" or "bounce" address field. It's where the recipient's email server sends messages if the email can't be delivered or if the recipient replies. In marketing or email communication, managing the return path is important for tracking responses, handling bounces, and ensuring proper delivery. It helps email senders monitor the success of their campaigns and maintain good sender reputation by properly handling undeliverable messages. Properly configured return paths enhance email deliverability and communication efficiency.
