How can I enable or disable double opt-in?

A double opt-in, or confirmation of subscription, is not (yet) mandatory in the Netherlands. For this reason, within MailBlue we give you the option to choose between a single or double opt-in.

The major advantage of a double opt-in is that people actually confirm that the email address belongs to them and that they have also entered the email address. This shows a higher level of interest. The downside is that some subscribers may forget to confirm their subscription, resulting in missed sign-ups.

Below is an explanation of how to enable or disable the double opt-in. If you want to know how to customise the confirmation email for a double opt-in, read this article.
