I looked at my previous messages and the links say "View Account", instead of the "Manage Account" link (shown above) for the most recent Boost which I received back in January (for 2017 spend). The older links no longer work, but that's not really surprising as these are all custom links which are specific to the email message and would likely expire over time. What does the subject line of your messages say?

That looks to be an older one (that's what mine said prior to the latest one). Did you get that in 2018? The one I received in 2018 mentions both bonus miles and MQM's and now says "Here Are Another 15,000 Bonus Miles And 15,000 MQMs!"

The "Manage Account" image above in my email has a custom link to an e.delta.com URL that takes you to the
MQM gifting page. It's a likely a temp link that will expire after awhile. The link from my January boost email still works,
but the one from September email (which says "View Account"), no longer works.

So you are saying all your emails look like this, but without the "Manage Account" links and I'm the only one here who is getting these? Sorry, but I'm doubtful that this is intentional and that DL somehow likes me (but hates everyone else).

My email was similar, but the Link to Manage Accounts did not link to the same like as provided above (by another poster) and nowhere did it have a check to deposit into your account. Very different than past years.

It's not a direct link. It's a generated indirect link which expires after a certain amount time and looks like "http://e.delta.com/a/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" where the x's are generated random characters. This link redirects to the MQM choice page. The email from above from Jan 27th still works, but the indirect links from previous emails are no longer active. I've found that it sometimes doesn't work if I'm not logged into my account, but it works reliably if I'm logged-in first.

My MANAGE ACCOUNT would only take me to the MY SKYMILES account management page. Not the gifting or depositing link. Even after I was logged in, it would take me there. Has always been there in the past. Not sure what happened this go around.

What, specifically, did your your button say? Mine all said "View Account" (see below) prior to the "Manage Account" in my January email. I checked all the links in my emails going back to 2015 and they were all indirect e.delta.com links of the form I posted above, not direct links to the MQM gifting page. Again, any link from previous year's emails is going to be dead at this point because they were temporary indirect links, not permanent ones. These generated links are typical for email campaigns to track back the URL click to a particular sent email/customer. All my prior year links end up at a "dl18" 2x2 GIF image (the URL's all end in "/dl18").
