    If you dont have direct permission by the individual email addresses themselves i wouldnt send a single one. You could potentially get lots of SPAM reports for one and its gonna give whatever your promoting a bad rep

    What format is the list in? That would affect how to filter out fake addresses, if it's possible. And is it an optin list?

    i doubt that its not possible automatically. but when you get the error msg you can delete those emails from the list. i think its the only way.
    thanks

    How much did you pay for 150k Email List? Do you claim to the person who offer this list to you?If you do email marketing, I suggest you collect the email address carefully. Before when I was doing the email marketing, I collected the email manually. And I did not send the emails by softwares, email marketing is a kind of spam, not to mention the automatic sending. No one knows your business more than you. This method is slow, but much more effective.More haste and less speed.If you's like to buy the email list, be careful, or the list will not bring the costomer, just bring the troubles.

    Unless you spent big bucks on a private list I'm sure there's over 500 wannabe internet marketers that have been slamming that list for months... You most likely wasted your money.

    I'll second that. I would never recommend buying any email lists at all.

    When we collect email addresses we assure the visitor that we will not SELL, RENT or GIVE their email to ANY third parties.
    So why buy a list???

    A lot of the emails are fake or do not exist...... dump the rest and build your own using conventional, tried and trusted methods.

    Good luck

    If I were you, I would build my own list instead of buying craps email without any real value. I am quite sure your emails will not convert as you would have wished to.

    Yes I agree...buying email list is equivalent to playing Russian Roulette with with only one bullet missing, You will get burned 99% of the time! Take your time...build your own list..do ad swaps...solo ads..etc, it will pay you big dividends in the long run.

    Newbie marketers believe if you reach 100,000 random people by email all 100,000 people will immediately receive the email, read it, and then a percentage of those readers will take an interest and click on a link and purchase something. Which is false.

    The truth: You send out 100k emails... 30k goto invalid or no longer active email accounts. 50k never get delivered because the email server rejected the email due to the highload from your IP/email address with the same/similar content. The 20k that gets delivered the majority are filtered to the Junk/Spam folder to be buried in one huge graveyard of SPAM. The actual emails that get delivered to the Inbox will be among other junk emails and the visitor will not even read the full Subject before deleting. The handful of people that actually DO click and read your message will probably complain about receiving it or just delete it. Email marketing is absolutely dead...unless they subscribe to your emails and they are already familiar and expecting the content.

    I agree the previous post.

    Rajnish357 you might as well throw those leads away
    there Garbage. I know that will be hard to do when you
    paid money to get them.

    If you are going to email those people, you will be considered
    a Spammer. With that you will be Blacklisted, your ISP can shut
    you down and you can end up paying a HUGE ASS Fine!!

    Its not worth it...When you can learn how to generate your own
    leads. There so many tools, ebooks, videos out there online
    that will show you how to generate leads the rightway.

    yes, you are spamming. And your server will prevent you from sending so much emails, so you can become marked as a spammer, and your web sites can loose repetition.

    Bro,

    You can buy email leads, email marketing is cheaper than some of other marketings people do around.
    But make sure you send confirmation link to your subscribers, trying to give as much details and make as short as possible
    first email you are requesting from them to confirm their subscription to your newsletter.

    I used to practice above with more than 1 million emails I first purchased, I found out that I had only 300K opened, and only 80K was interested
    on what I was promoting, so they became my subscribers.
    I had an Dedicated Server with unlimited send rate and I used phplist to send out these emails. but in very very slow rate, and that just
    not to get denied from Hotmail,Yahoo or Google.

    I used to prepare newsletter, and send emails via commandline and sometimes it took up to 7 days to send out 80K emails.
    Anyway I had nothing to lose.

    I send 3 newsletters within 1 and half month, only free products like eBook and other resources, while I wrote an eBook during this 1 an half month.
    Once I wrote the eBook, I already knew what content my subscribers were interested so I did not post it on ClickBank, I just emailed it to
    80K subscribers and I made 39K subscribers to buy my eBook.. you make calculations :)

    Take my advice.

    Regards,

    Just use your time and try to get your own email list from a website or blog, it will be much more worth it in the end. You just need to target your audience is all... I guess it's easier said than done.
