 * Hi, I’ve set up a series of automated emails within MailChimp, so I’d like to
   disable the confirmation email, please let me know how to do this.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi Aldo413,
 * Due to limitations on the MailChimps API, the only way to disabled initial confirmation
   emails is to set the opt-in setting to ‘Single Opt-in’. This will immediately
   add anyone who fills out the form to the list.
 * This can be dangerous if you get a large amount of spammmers and bots, which 
   in that case I would recommend toggling on the reCaptcha library to help combat
   that.
 * Thanks,
    Evan
