  • Apple Mail Privacy Protection Settings: Just ahead of the release of iOS 15, Ongage released this setting to provide Ongage Admin users the flexibility to choose if they want to ignore opens triggered by Apple’s proxy servers. There are three separate ignore settings you can choose:
    • Ignore Apple Mail proxy opens in Events & Triggers.
    • Ignore Apple Mail proxy opens in Segments.
    • Ignore Apple Mail proxy opens in Automation Rules.
    • (warning) Note: Once you choose to ignore opens from Apple’s proxy servers, it will ignore both fake opens triggered by the Apple proxy server prefetch, as well as real opens triggered by recipients opening an email on their iOS 15 Apple mail app (with MPP set to on), as there's no way to distinguish between the two.
