Cleaned profiles

Upon enabling the "Cleaned Profiles" feature, the system will automatically begin identifying, removing, and marking profiles as "cleaned" when your messages are undeliverable. The cleaned profiles will be excluded from the future broadcasts. You can efficiently manage, and retrieve removed profiles from the new “Cleaned Profiles” section under the Home menu.

Enabling Profile Cleaning

As an administrator or a user, you can activate the "Enable Profile Cleaning" option through the "Configure Company" page.

To enable the profile cleaning:

1. Navigate to your Admin Profile or User Profile>Configure Company.

Configure Company

2. Select the checkbox for Enable Profile Cleaning.

3. Configure the Bounce Count that signifies number of consecutive soft bounce count. The acceptable range for this setting is limited to numerical values between 3 and 8. The default number of soft bounce is 4.
