Signal
The Megaphone Studio team opened a beehiiv support ticket about a random/unexplained open rate decrease on one or more newsletters. beehiiv support (Dani) replied on 2026-08-28 with a diagnostic questionnaire asking about:
- Recent changes to sending identity, email domain, DNS/DMARC records, IPs
- New links, advertisements, or campaign content
- Audience list changes (segments, automations)
- Last re-engagement campaign date
RV Admin forwarded the thread to Michael noting “there are likely many changes happening that I may be out of the loop on” and deferred to him to respond.
Status
Ticket open. beehiiv waiting for answers. No admin has responded to beehiiv’s questions yet.
Action Needed
Someone (RV Admin or Michael) needs to answer beehiiv’s diagnostic questions. Relevant context to check:
- Any recent DNS/domain changes on Megaphone-managed newsletters?
- Any recent list imports or automation changes?
- Which newsletter is affected?
Watch
- Resolution from beehiiv once diagnostics are answered
- Whether issue is isolated (one client) or systemic across Megaphone newsletters
