Add Soft Bounces(Emails) to Smart List

We are trying to send out a client communication to all clients and in spot checking a few we found a few contacts missing. In digging deeper it turns out they soft bounced and now the lead is blocked from receiving communications.

Is there a way to add in all soft bounces as a filter to our Smart Campaign? I have tried using the filter but it is changing our number drastically and only pulling in what I think are the Soft Bounces? I want to have all contacts including soft bounces.

Thoughts?

I want to include all those contacts within the first five plus any soft bounced emails. If I only choose a few I am not sure I will get the same results. Something I will have to play with to see. With all filters and the soft bounced my numbers are drastically lower. If I remove the filter and do not include it, it is higher which makes me believe it isn't pulling in all filter criteria.


So if I understand correctly, you want to send to anyone who fits ALL of the first 5 criteria OR whose email soft-bounced (off any email) in the past 90 days.

If that's the case, your Advanced Filter should look like:

(1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 5) OR 6

@Tara Rowe​ I moved this discussion over to the Products space to get more input, but also, take a look at this doc. It should help you out.

Ah, okay. That's what's happening. Because it's all filters, it will take all of your first five filters PLUS only those people whose emails have soft-bounced.

Do you want to include all emails that have soft-bounced, or just those that fit the above criteria?
