Abstract

Methods and systems for deliverability-based e-mail sending are disclosed. A plurality of e-mail addresses for a user are acquired. For each of the e-mail addresses, a connection between a sending computer system and a receiving computer system is opened. A likelihood of successful e-mail delivery is determined for each of the connections. The connection having the highest likelihood of delivery is automatically selected. An e-mail is sent using the selected connection, and the other connections are closed without sending an e-mail.
