Let’s talk email deliverability, shall we? Kickbox, an email verification company, has some thoughts on using suppression lists. While suppression lists can be a useful tool for cleaning up email lists and reducing the risk of sending spam, they can also harm your deliverability if not used correctly. Kickbox suggests taking a closer look at your suppression list to ensure that it’s not blocking legitimate email addresses. Additionally, regularly updating your list and analyzing its impact on your email performance is key. Remember, while suppression lists may seem like a quick fix for improving deliverability, they can also cause more harm than good if not used carefully. Stay vigilant, folks!
