Please include an "exclude by tag" feature

When sending out an email blast, it would be very helpful to have an exclude by tag feature. This would allow us to exclude people who had already registered for a seminar so we do not re-invite them. It would also allow us to narrow down our list when sending emails by excluding a single tag instead of including many many tags (more efficient and faster).

We'd like to do something like send a campaign as Bob to Bob's list, and as Rodney to Rodney's list, etc. Unfortunately there's no way to do this without duplicating emails to people that are on both lists. So for this to work there needs to be a way to exclude a list from getting a campaign OR a way to send a campaign from mulitple addresses each going to their own list of people.

Hi - just a wish list item that would be very helpful: would love the ability to 'exclude' certain lists/tagged groups from a given campaign. Thanks, Alessandra

I'd like to be able to exclude certain tags within a list, not only including specific tags

I agree.  We are thinking of going with a different provider for exactly this reason.  A feature whereby a send can read the tag on the recipient and only send emails with that tag would be super helpful.  The email lists need a way to be sliced and diced according to the recipients needs, as well as the sender's needs.

A way to exclude certain email addresses from a campaign would be helpful, other than having to create a new list each time for said campaign eg if one or two addressees don't want emails on that topic but they don't want to be completely unsubscribed.
