We had collected the email subscribers from Feedburner (Google discontinued this service) and haven’t much communicated with them since long.
We re-launched the service and wanted to make use of our subscribers. We migrated to Moosend (The ultimate email marketing software and marketing automation platform that will not break your bank. Get Moosend now! for better marketing results.
When we imported the list into Moosend and sent an introduction campaign to the list, It was fine until we have seen the bounced emails.
(Don’t do this – instead validate the email list with Email validator like NeverBounce, TheChecker (currently they’re offering Lifetime deal) to clean-up the email list for better delivery of the campaign).
Bounced emails can harm the sender’s reputation! It’s best to remove them from the email list.
If you’re not using any Email validation service and you’re migrating old email list just like us then you can remove the list as below but only after running an campaign. Beware that the it affects the first campaign, hence use this method only if you’ve already run an campaign.
If you want to cleanup the list before running an campaign please use TheChecker or any other similar service.
