PenguinMails includes a powerful email warm-up tool that boosts your domain reputation and improves cold email deliverability, so your emails land in the inbox, not spam.
If you send cold emails from a brand-new domain or email account without warming it up, your emails are likely to land in spam. That’s because email service providers (like Gmail and Outlook) don’t trust cold domains that suddenly send hundreds of emails.
Email warm-up is the process of gradually building your domain reputation by sending and receiving small volumes of real-looking emails over time. This tells providers that your email account is active, safe, and trustworthy.
Without warm-up, even the best cold email copy won’t reach your prospects.
PenguinMails doesn’t just warm up your email; it does it smartly and automatically.
Here’s how it works in 3 simple steps:
Once you link your domain and create the mailboxes, PenguinMails starts the warm-up process without needing any external tools.
Every day, our system sends a small number of realistic emails to a trusted network of inboxes. These emails look like normal conversations. There are no spammy links or patterns.
The warm-up emails are opened, marked as important, replied to, and removed from spam folders when needed. This builds your domain's trust score and tells Gmail or Outlook that your email is safe.
The warm-up frequency increases gradually, mimicking natural human behavior, so you can start cold outreach with confidence.
You don’t need to manage anything manually. Our AI handles the entire warm-up sequence behind the scenes.
Most people skip warm-up and jump straight into cold outreach, and wonder why nothing works.
Email providers like Gmail and Outlook are constantly watching your sending behavior. If your domain is new, inactive, or suddenly sends 100+ cold emails… it’s a red flag.
Your emails go straight to Spam, and your domain reputation takes a hit.
Here’s why warm-up is non-negotiable:
Most warm-up tools use the same outdated pool of fake inboxes, poor email scripts, and no real engagement.
At PenguinMails, we’ve built our warm-up engine from scratch, to mimic real human behavior and maximize deliverability.
