Geographic Location Data

Applies To:  ■ PoliteMail Desktop    ■ PoliteMail Online   ■ PMUA   □ PoliteMail M365


Version:  4.9    5.0    5.1+


PoliteMail will convert recipient IP address information into geographic data, so you may view a map of your open and click interactions. This map view enables drill-down to a state-level view (city-level view in Version 4.9x).


To see the maps, double-click the message or choose Email Metrics. Scroll down to reveal the map.


Notes

  • In anonymous and aggregate measurement modes, PoliteMail will store the longitude and latitude data from the IP conversion using the IP/Geographic database, but will not store the IP.
  • If you are using a VPN, the locations shown will reflect the location of the VPN IP address, not the actual recipient location.

PoliteMail now includes GeoLite2 data created by MaxMind, available from http://www.maxmind.com.
