Expert tips, strategies, and best practices to help you master email marketing, improve deliverability, and grow your business.
Today we replaced the Octeth client area with a new Client Portal at my.octeth.com. Your account, licenses and order history are already there. It adds teams with roles, self-service license domains, support cases inside the portal, bank transfer payments and passkeys. It is also where our new email services for Octeth customers will live.
Octeth v6.0.0 is a security release. We audited every command in the API and fixed everything the audit found, which means most of this release consists of Octeth refusing requests it used to accept. We also found that Octeth had been recording its own address instead of your visitors'. Here is what changed and what it means for you.
Octeth v5.9.6 ships today with a brand new user interface for your clients and a completed admin API. The interface runs alongside the one you already have rather than replacing it, and that was the hardest decision in the release. I want to explain why we did it that way, and what we found when we started installing our own release package on clean servers before shipping it.
Octeth v5.9.5 ships today, our second release on the two-week cadence and our second in a row with no new features. It closes the last vulnerability from the audit that produced the v5.9.4 fixes, and it repairs a report that had been showing an empty result to every customer who used it since the day it shipped. Nobody reported that one, and I think the reason why is worth talking about.
Octeth v5.9.4 ships today with zero new features. It closes two vulnerabilities we found auditing our own code, and fixes a segment rule bug that could quietly sweep suppressed contacts into an audience. It's also the first release on our new two-week cadence — and a small, unglamorous release is exactly what that cadence is supposed to produce.
Octeth v5.9.3 ships today, and it's a hardening release: 258 of its 269 changes are fixes. We spent the cycle auditing our own API surface rather than adding features, and we're publishing the full accounting — because when you host your own platform, you get to see what a maintenance release actually contains. It also brings account usage APIs for agencies who bill on sending volume, spreadsheet-safe CSV exports, and delivery workers that recover on their own.
Octeth v5.9.2 ships today with a new way to work with your platform: a Model Context Protocol server that lets AI assistants like Claude operate your account through safe, permission-scoped tools. It also brings campaign reporting APIs for building your own client dashboards, automated bot and proxy activity detection so your engagement numbers reflect real humans, and much faster email search on large lists.
Octeth v5.9.1 ships today with our deepest analytics and reporting update yet — a full List Analytics suite, Email Gateway reporting and management, journey-level ROI reporting with bulk operations, and a campaign export API. If your agency builds client reports or wants to own your own data, this release gives you a new level of access across the entire platform.
Octeth v5.9.0 ships today with three major additions: built-in A/B campaign testing that lets you measure and automatically send the winning variation, a completely rebuilt Email Gateway interface with cross-domain event visibility, and a new List Freshness Report for proactive list hygiene — plus 27 bug fixes and automatic SSL via Caddy.
Octeth v5.8.3 ships 81 commits over 15 days: automatic recovery for stuck journey entries, a new ScheduledPull trigger, the Log Observer and System Health dashboard, revenue attribution with duplicate conversion prevention, and 55 bug fixes that address real operational pain points.
Octeth v5.8.2 ships 48 commits in 12 days with a focused campaign experience overhaul, a new terminal-based monitoring dashboard for system admins, comprehensive recurring campaign fixes, and a more reliable send engine. Fourteen features, 26 bug fixes, and no breaking changes.
Octeth v5.8.1 ships major email gateway performance improvements through batch processing and Redis-backed spool storage, custom email headers and footers configurable at both the list and user group level, and production-grade monitoring via Prometheus metrics and queue health checks. Fifty-one commits in 21 days, with 17 new features and 25 bug fixes.
A look ahead at what's coming in the next two Octeth releases: v5.7.4 brings 35+ improvements based on customer feedback including email gateway performance optimizations and journey enhancements, while v6 introduces AI-powered cold outreach, advanced campaign targeting, and email gateway capabilities that let you run your own Sendgrid-like service.
Octeth v5.7.3 focuses on operational reliability with a new automated Stuck Campaign Detector that identifies and alerts you when campaigns stop progressing. This release also fixes critical journey email issues, adds important security enhancements, and improves campaign reporting UI. If you've ever had a campaign mysteriously stop sending, this update is for you.
Octeth v5.7.2 brings nearly 800 commits of improvements including a completely redesigned Journey Builder with decision nodes and multi-tag triggers, native Google Postmaster Tools integration for deliverability monitoring, and a powerful new admin campaign report page. This release represents over 8 months of focused development on automation, analytics, and performance.
