New Feature: Segment your email addresses by "contains"

Posted by David Greiner on June 28, 2006

Screenshot of the new contains segmentingSince we launched segmentation back in February, the most requested improvement by far was the ability to create a segment based on a wildcard or "contains" condition.

We've been listening. As of today, you can now use the "contains" and "does not contain" clauses in the email address field to narrow your segments for even more targeted emails.

For example, now you can send an email to all your recipient except those at Hotmail or target only those at educational (.edu) addresses.
