Getting errors when testing my email for deliverability that the constant contact forced links (at bottom of email) for "Unsubscribe" and "Update Profile" both come back as broken links.  I cannot edit these in order to fix them and it affects my deliverability.

Hello @MasonD29 ,

 

These links only function when the email is actually sent, not in preview / test sends, as they are specifically coded to a contact when sent out.
