How do you warm an IP?
IP warming, or IP warm-up, is the way you establish a reputation for a new IP, or an IP that has not been used for some time. The warm-up process involves sending email from the new IP starting with small volumes, and gradually increasing the volume of email each day or week according to a set schedule.
