The core idea
When you send an email through Numonic, you get back an ID. That ID is a durable reference — you can query the status of that send at any point in time, fromqueued all the way through delivered, bounced, or complained.
What Numonic does
Before sending, every request goes through pre-flight evaluation:- Suppression check — suppressed recipients are filtered out before the send goes out. The rest still go. Suppressed addresses are listed in the response.
- Domain verification — the
fromaddress must use a domain registered and verified in your Numonic account.
202 Accepted immediately. The email is processed asynchronously.
After sending, SES delivery events (deliveries, bounces, complaints) are ingested automatically. Hard bounces and spam complaints add addresses to your suppression list so you don’t have to manage that yourself.
What Numonic is not
Numonic is not a marketing email platform. There are no templates, campaigns, or contact lists. It’s infrastructure for developers who need reliable transactional email with full delivery visibility.Authentication
