Your problem
My problem is: Users that are marked as Do Not Contact, are still being emailed in campaigns.
These errors are showing in the log: n/a
Steps I have tried to fix the problem:
The campaign is setup to run off of a single filtered segment. When the campaign runs, it sends an email out, waits 5 days, then sends a follow up, and then another 5 days and another follow up.
As this cycle runs, we receive responses for STOP or Unsubscribe which we manually put into Mautic. We take the name / email and find it in our contact list and mark the contact Do Not COntact.
This SHOULD force mautic to not contact the users at all, however, it doesnt. In the cycle above, users tagged DNC in the first iteration, received the second and 3rd emails. Users remvoed in the 2nd iteration, received the 3rd.
Im not sure why this is happening, but my understanding is that once a contact is marked do not contact, they shouldnt EVER be contacted and Mautic should enforce that, as of right now, it doesnt seem to.
The end result is we have people that we have requested removal manunally, and despite being processed into Mautic, mautic keeps on sending them emails.
How do we fix this?
