Mandrill API – Rejected emails marked as “All good, mail sent.”

Replies: 0

Using mandrillapp.com API, and a bug on mailchimp’s side caused the domain to be marked as not have validated ownership meaning that mandrill was rejecting all outgoing emails for the domain.

But the emails were still being marked as Status: Sent, Solution: All good, mail sent.

If I look at the Session Transcript I see recorded a return from mandrill stating that the email was rejected.
