Why Mailchimp Omnivore is suddenly showing warnings

Why doesn’t Mailchimp allow role-based email addresses?
Role-based email addresses are those that are generic or address a group rather than an individual person.

Get unbelievable results with Mailchimp Automation and Goals
A very observant subscriber to my Mailchimp training campaign asked what the goal was in the URL when visiting the Mailchimp training page from my latest campaign. Essentially, when clicking the link to the Mailchimp training page from the campaign, the URL looks like http://mailchimp.organicwebcomau.wpcomstaging.com/training/?goal=0_7628fd76a5-5d36f04525-351951009 rather than the usual http://mailchimp.organicwebcomau.wpcomstaging.com/training.
