When an email has been marked as ‘Cleaned’ in Mailchimp, that means that either the last email sent to that address hard bounced or there have been multiple repeated soft bounces in a row. A hard bounce happens when an email could not be delivered to the intended address for permanent reasons.
A cleaned email address is as far as Mailchimp’s concerned, a dead email address and one that cannot be contacted. In most instances, this is because the email address either doesn’t exist, which is known as a ‘hard’ bounce, or it can’t accept any emails at the moment (it could be full), which is known as a soft bounce.
Do I need to remove ‘cleaned’ contacts from my Mailchimp audience?
Emails aren’t sent to cleaned contacts and you are not billed in Mailchimp for cleaned contacts. There is therefore no need to remove cleaned contacts from your audience. Is there a way to send a ‘test’ email to ‘cleaned’ subscribers to see if any respondents open the email?

What is Mailchimp and how does it work?
Mailchimp is a great system for email marketing and one of the key benefits is that they handle lots of the heavy lifting – managing unsubscribed emails and emails that don’t exist – without you having to get involved. The one thing you do need to do regularly though is review your unsubscribes.
If it’s a hard bounce, Mailchimp will move these email addresses to the Cleaned section where it means that you won’t be able to send email marketing campaigns to them. Soft bounces happen when there’s a temporary email deliverability issue to an email address which might be due to the recipient’s mailbox being full.
This of course begs the question “How do I send a broadcast email in Mailchimp?”
A broadcast email is an email you send out once (say, an announcement about a feature launch). You can do that in Mailchimp by clicking the “Create” button in the upper right corner of the screen, then the “Email” tab, then choosing “Regular” tab, and clicking the “Begin” button.
