To protect your sender and domain reputation as well as ensure the long-term health and viability of the platform, when you import a new list Lead Gen & CRM evaluates the overall quality of the list based on a variety of factors including an evaluation done by a third-party verification service. If 45% or more of the list contains contacts with email addresses deemed invalid, toxic, or purchased, Lead Gen & CRM will not allow your import to continue since these lists would fall into the lowest 2.5% of list quality and have a high risk of damaging your sender reputation.
In the rare case that a list is rejected due to low quality, Constant Contact's compliance team will be notified.
Refer to Using Email Engagement Tools for more information about the evaluation of imported or created contacts and list rejections.
The Import Tool uses .CSV files to create contact lists, and any .CSV file that you import should be structured similar to the following:
First Name | Last Name | Is Unsubscribed | |
Galileo | Galilei | g@polymath.com |
0 |
Edwin | Hubble | space@extragalatic.com |
0 |
Hipparchus | math@trig.com |
1 |
