just looked through the predefined lists and saw a lot of @marketplace.amazon.com emails which have been imported, but don't have double opt-in.
how can I make sure those ppl don't get a email?
we are switching from DRIP to Klaviyo and want to start with a fresh install :)

@elenio You can do this one of two ways:
Create a Segment of users that exclude @marketplace.amazon.com email addresses.
Create a Segment of users that are only @marketplace.amazon.com email addresses, and exclude them when you send your campaign.
Here’s a quick screenshot of this:
Marketing Segment Excluding Amazon Emails
Segment of Amazon Emails
If you go with method #1, then you can just use that segment for all Campaigns and it will exclude Amazon emails automatically.
If you go with method #2, then you have to make sure to exclude those emails every time you send a campaign. The benefit of this is you will have the option, for whatever reason, to use that Segment separately as an audience to send emails to - or if some campaigns (that are allowed by Amazon) you can choose to not exclude them.
I imagine method #1 is more practical, and you can always create the segment for Amazon emails should you ever need to send ot them separately.

This isn’t really feasible if you have multiple dynamic segments you’re using for targeting. We’ve got 8-10 different domains we need to block like Amazon, Indeed, ebay and others. If you only send to 1 segment you’re spamming most likely and not using Klaviyo properly and leaving money on the table which is a bigger problem.
Klaviyo support, please setup a global blocked domain feature so we don’t have to build out elaborate segments unnecessarily every time just to have a clean send.
Yep, already did but it’s unclear if when you action the “suppress” feature for that segment if it’s going to suppress future peeps that are added to the segment…
@sharpcommerce, it does a one-time suppression for the current members of the segmentat the time that you press the button. You would need to do this regularly (e.g. every month or so) to suppress new members.
If your goal is to truly suppress emails for a set of domains on an ongoing basis (i.e. you never want to message them), I would recommend (1) doing a one-time suppression of the segment using the button in your screenshot and (2) setting up a segment-triggered flow (using the segment you defined) that suppresses new users with these kind of emails using a flow webhook calling Klaviyo’s APIs. See https://www.klaviyo.com/blog/solution-recipe-9-use-klaviyo-flow-webhooks-to-automate-suppressions-using-segments-and-klaviyos-apis for a guide on this. The reason to avoid doing the flow + back-populating is you’ll likely hit API rate limits for your initial set.
