How to track an email and protect it from spam?

Hello. Orient please in a couple of moments on mail. Are there those who know?
- I have an email [email protected] From time to time I send letters to other people from it. No big spam. 3 point letters per day to commercial organizations. Inside: 30-40 characters of the same text. Attached: personalized pdf file. Without any words: buy, order, etc.
QUESTION #1: I have heard that emails from @gmail.com can automatically go to spam, promo tab, etc. (not included). It's true?
QUESTION №2: Is it necessary to create a domain mail in this case? Namely: [email protected] instead of [email protected] The second one is not tied to a domain, is it? Or tied?
QUESTION #3:Please advise services where you can enter your mail and check spam and the presence of filters for this mailbox.
QUESTION №4: I read that to track the arrival of a letter and the openness of letters, it is worth using postmasters. For example: https://postmaster.google.com. There you can register mail: [email protected]? Or do you need only a domain name? Or is it all garbage and is it easier to track through the email service?

1. No, it's not true
2. Not necessarily, but there are many advantages to mail on a domain. For example, the ability to prescribe DKIM, DMARC and SPF. You will immediately be able to track emails through the postmaster and make mailings through special services (mailchimp, unisender, etc.). They allow you to see not only statistics of openings, spam, but also other useful things - whether a person clicked on the link, why the letter did not reach, maybe the address does not exist or the mailbox is full, etc.
3. Mail for spam can be checked at mxtoolbox.com , but the service only works with mail on a domain.
4. Postmaster needs mail on the domain. domain ownership must be confirmed by placing a special code on the site or by making an entry in the DNS.
Now, with mail [email protected], you can track whether your letter was opened or not using special extensions for Google Chrome. For example, Streak.

1. They can. Or they may not go. Because the axiom stated by SyavaSyava There is a whole language for compiling mail filters, which can be very non-trivial, in the simplest case - if the subject of the letter has the word N or the word M or the word X - the letter is sent to the Trash without getting into the Inbox. It is impossible to influence it, or even to predict it.
2. If by "domain" you mean a domain name - yes, it is bound, it needs an MX record. If the site is not. Using [email protected] instead of [email protected] is optional, but has certain advantages - for example, the ability to specify SPF / DKIM, which increases the chances of passing antispam, and also increases the rating of the office in the eyes of a potential client.
3. What does it mean to check for spam? If you check for the presence in the blacklists of blockers that many people use - SORBS, Spamhaus, SpamCop, Barracuda - then you can do it here , here , here and here . It is not possible to check for filters - the filter is applied either when the message is delivered to the local mailbox by the Local Delivery Agent (LDA), or when the mail program is launched from the Inbox. In neither case do they anonymize themselves in any way.
4. I have no idea, because I have never used free mailers for something even the thickness of a serious candy wrapper - only for spam, invitations, alerts - in short, for what it is not a pity to share with a comrade major.

OK. Thanks for answers. As a result: new mail on the domain is created. Configured: DKIM, DMARC and SPF.
Task: to choose an email service for tracking sendability, open rate of targeted (different letters) // not bulk, template ones.
Tried the Unisender service before. Now I tested it: I sent a test letter through it (from a new domain mail) to several of my mails --- as a result: letters get into the "Promotions", "Spam" tabs.
-- If you send directly - everything gets into the inbox. Means there is some problem in Unisender'e.
Plus, I did not find an opportunity in Unisender - pointwise to send different letters to different recipients. There everything is sharpened under sending of identical letters - to separate segments.
QUESTION:can you advise some way/service in my case? (spot forwarding + tracking from domain mail // not gmail).

It is unlikely that emails from gmail.com will end up in spam.
It is more professional to create your own website, pay for hosting and send mail from your own mailbox. I think it will be more efficient, and having your own mailbox will attract more users and subscribers to your Internet resource.
