# Group Blacklist: Overview

## Overview

The **Group Blacklist** view displays contacts blocked from communication within a specific group in Mapp Engage. This includes email addresses, mobile numbers, and domains. It provides group-specific control over who can receive messages, helping to tailor audience engagement while maintaining compliance.

---

## Navigation Path

*Audience > Blacklists > Group Blacklist*

---

## How to View

To access a group's blacklist, use the **Group** drop-down menu at the top of the interface to select the relevant group. The list will automatically update to show only entries for that group.

| **Import** | Upload a file to bulk-add multiple blacklist entries to the selected group. |

## Additional Information

- Blocking a domain removes all corresponding addresses (e.g., all `@example.com` users) from the selected group.
- Deleting a blacklist entry lifts the restriction but does not automatically restore the user's subscription or membership in the group. Manual re-subscription or import is required.
- The **Group** drop-down is mandatory to filter and manage blacklists effectively, as each group maintains its own list.
- Blacklisting is one of several ways a contact can stop receiving messages. For a complete overview, see [How a Contact Stops Receiving Messages](/v1/docs/engage-how-contacts-stop-receiving-messages).
