Do AMP Emails Require a Separate Delivery Solution?
While AMP relies on a new MIME part, the AMP emails can be sent as part of normal HTML emails. In case the recipient’s email service does not support AMP for email, the message will be delivered as a standard HTML email.
AMP for email works as a part of the current email infrastructure that supports the traditional version to enhance the loading speed and improve the functionality. Marketers using delivery solution that supports the traditional standard, will not have to support other delivery solution. You can send an email message using the same platform based on a recipient’s ability to receive AMP emails. All you need is to use “AMP” ed coding to upgrade the email features.
How to Begin With AMP Email?
Getting started with AMP emails is easier. You just need to tap on the registration guideline to immediately begin with the latest AMP for Email. Here’s all you need to know to begin with AMP email:
Step 1: Use the Google email validation tool to ensure you have SPF (Sender Policy Framework) and DKIM (Domain Keys Identified Mail) setup.
Step 2: To verify your account, send a test email. This will ensure that you are using the right AMP coding.
Step 3: To avoid spam complaints, make sure that you have thoroughly gone through with the bulk sender’s guidelines. This is very helpful to keep your domain white listed.

Step 4: Once you met with the registration requirement, you need to then send an AMP-complain email with the correct MIME. You need to address an email to the Gmail support from the domain you have set up. Try to send directly, instead of forwarding an email.
Step 5: Lastly, submit the registration form and wait for Google’s words.
