Frequently asked questions

Encrypted email and Virtru compatibility

The quick answer

Encryption can transform content or keep images/redirects outside the supported tracking flow. Preserve your security requirements and verify the actual output; ordinary extension injection is not a guarantee of Virtru compatibility.

Use a compatible message format

  1. Check compose mode

    Open the inbox compose menu and check whether Plain text mode is selected. An open-tracking image requires a rich-text/HTML message.

  2. Choose the intended behavior

    Use rich text if you want a tracking image and rewritten HTML links. Keep plain text and disable tracking for that message when plain text is your requirement.

  3. Start a fresh message

    After changing the format, open a new compose window and check the controls before sending.

  4. Verify separately

    Use a separate mailbox and check the event classification. Plain text cannot be made pixel-trackable by installing another browser extension.
