## TL;DR

After delivering, read the Postmark response off the message: message = UserMailer.welcome(@user); message.deliver\_now; message.postmark\_response exposes the API response including the message ID, and message.message\_id gives the standard Message-ID.

## Steps

1. After delivering, read the Postmark response off the message: `message = UserMailer.welcome(@user); message.deliver_now; message.postmark_response` exposes the API response including the message ID, and `message.message_id` gives the standard Message-ID. Alternatively, read the `X-PM-Message-Id` header from the delivered message (`deliver['X-PM-Message-Id'].to_s`) and persist it for tracking.
