Re: Visit the Email Delivery: Success Hub
We seem to receive pseudo "subscribers" that do not appear to use real email addresses. All of them repeat first & last name and some are not coherent names with a combination of misc. numbers and letters. Can these be blocked by Constant Contact?

Hello @Pennsylvania Pro-LifeF-365908686 ,
Â
No, reCaptcha and similar systems on sign up forms should normally prevent bot sign ups en masse, however there's nothing that would really stop a human just submitting dud email addresses.
Â
The best advice I can offer in this regard is to turn on Confirm Opt-In for your account. This will make it so any contacts that sign up via a sign up form you have associated with your account will need to click a button in an automated confirmation email they receive. Any contacts that don't will stay in Awaiting Confirmation status until then.
Â
If you only manually import contacts, and don't utilize any of our sign up forms, then the only option would be to manually scrub the file prior to import.Â
