What we are looking for here is the type field. Type shows us that the e-mail was first queued, then when it was delivered type was updated to success, and then again once the e-mail was opened type changes to open

"events": [
        {
            "created_at": "2023-05-15T11:25:22+00:00",
            "type": "queued"
        },
        {
            "severity": null,
            "status_code": null,
            "created_at": "2023-05-15T11:25:26+00:00",
            "type": "success",
            "message": "142.250.102.26 accepted message.\/Remote host said: 250 2.0.0 OK  1684149925 lj19-20020a170906f9d300b0094f12094814si13773955ejb.237 - gsmtp\/"
        },
        {
            "severity": null,
            "status_code": null,
            "ip": "80.208.65.151",
            "name": "open",
            "created_at": "2023-05-15T11:29:02+00:00",
            "type": "open",
            "message": null,
            "user_agent": "Microsoft Office\/16.0 (Microsoft Outlook 16.0.14326; Pro), Mozilla\/4.0 (compatible; ms-office; MSOffice rmj)"

"events": [
        {
            "created_at": "2023-05-14T17:53:28+00:00",
            "type": "queued"
        },
        {
            "severity": "temporary",
            "status_code": null,
            "created_at": "2023-05-14T17:53:30+00:00",
            "type": "softbounce",
            "message": "Sorry, I couldn't find any host named gmail.con. (#5.1.2)\/"
        }
