Read your email activity
How to read the circle and checkmark next to your sent mail.
Send from the web inbox
In Gmail, Outlook on the web, and Yahoo Mail, write and send as usual. The browser extension inserts tracking automatically on send — there is nothing extra to click in those web compose windows.
One check means tracked
One muted check beside a sent message means the email was sent with tracking and has no likely-human open yet.
Two checks mean opened
When likely-human engagement arrives, the indicator becomes two green checks in supported sent-message lists.
Hover for details
Hover over a checkmark to see the view count and last open time. Pro accounts also see link click stats, IP address, and geolocation.
Open the popup
Click the Elite Email Tracker icon in your browser toolbar to open your full activity feed and settings.
What an event can actually tell you
An open is a network request, not proof that a named person read the message. Elite Email Tracker keeps the source classification attached so you can decide whether the event is useful.
Likely human
The request pattern looks consistent with recipient activity. Use it as a follow-up signal, not identity proof.
Privacy protected
A mail provider or privacy relay requested the image. It may hide when or whether the recipient opened the message.
Security scanner
A security service inspected an image or link, sometimes seconds after send. Do not treat it as buying intent.
Sender or unknown
The request came from you, a forwarded copy, or traffic the service cannot classify confidently. It remains visible without being overclaimed.
Detect and block hidden trackers
See who is tracking you, and shut them out. Included with Pro.
Open any email
If the message contains known tracking pixels, the detector icon appears and lists which of the 40+ known tracker services were found.
Blocked trackers are highlighted
With blocking enabled, detected trackers are blocked before they load and highlighted in the message.
Tune it in settings
Enable or disable detection and blocking independently, and add custom rules for senders or services you always want blocked or allowed.
Optional Outlook Office add-in
Use this when you send from Outlook on Windows or Mac — the browser extension cannot run inside the desktop app. Install from the Microsoft marketplace, or ask your organization’s administrator to deploy the signed manifest through Microsoft 365 Integrated Apps. Connect once, then choose Track this message before sending. On Outlook on the web the extension already tracks automatically; if both are installed they share one tracking record instead of inserting two pixels. Outlook never blocks a send if reconciliation is unavailable.
Important notes
- Emails sent only to yourself may not register opens - most webmail clients skip loading images for your own messages.
- Other webmail extensions can conflict with pixel insertion.
- If something looks broken, disable other extensions, refresh the webmail tab, and try again.
