Blocks | A blocked email is an email message that gets as far as the recipient's mail server but is bounced back undelivered before it gets to the intended recipient.

This can happen when your mail server IP address has been added to a blacklist, blocked by an ISP, or if the message content is flagged by a filter on the receiving server. Blocks might also occur because the recipient's inbox is full. Blocks are soft bounces. If they are not reachable for a while, they become bounces.
