Queued vs. sent

The distinction dashboards blur: queued means the system plans to send; sent means it actually left. Reporting queued as sent is how tools fake momentum.

A queue contains intended work; execution records describe what happened afterward. Check campaign schedules for blocked or waiting work and volume reports for recorded sends. When a send outcome is uncertain, inspect the timeline before retrying or reporting a definitive failure.

In practice

Read the campaign schedule for queued work, then compare recorded outbound events for the same seat and period.

What to check

Queued, ready, dispatched, confirmed, and replied are different states. Do not report a timeout as a failure to send without checking the recorded outcome.
