What to Expect “As the warm-up process begins, expect some bulking (mailbox providers identifying marketing emails as spam) and blocking.” Bulking at Yahoo, AOL, and Gmail typically clears up after a few sends with solid positive metrics, but can take time to get inbox delivery. The key is to keep sending it to engaged subscribers.
Warm-up summary “Certain mailbox providers limit senders to thresholds (the number of messages delivered per day) until they establish a reputation.” You should start the warm-up process with your best performing messages – those sent to highly engaged recipients. Focus on warming up with your most engaged subscribers, then add older segments as you progress. Avoid tipping your reputation from good to bad by only adding older segments to the engaged segments in chunks of 15 percent of your existing volume. The goal during the warm-up process is to send to subscribers who are the least likely to complain and bounce. These subscribers comprise the most recent opt-ins and regular opens and clickers.

You can't transfer your reputation from one domain to another or from your previously used IPs to the ones you use in Dynamics Customer Insights - Journeys. “If you use the same domain, your reputation can follow you. However, mailbox providers like Gmail use the reputation of the domain coupled with the reputation of the IP, therefore, you still must follow the warm-up process.” Dynamics Customer Insights - Journeys platform by default covers the IP part of warm-up by providing you with a high reputation set of IP addresses. So, you have a good base from the start to build up reputation for your domain.
