Postmark returns a message ID after accepting an email, which is needed for delivery tracking (sent, bounced, etc.). With postmark-rails, calling UserMailer.welcome(@user).deliver_now does not obviously expose the Postmark message ID on the mailer or message object. The message ID is required to correlate sends with later delivery/bounce events.
