Thank you for subscribing to The Dating Divas!
Many e-mail and Internet companies are now using programs to block
unwanted e-mail, often called spam. Sometimes, however, these programs block
e-mail you want to get.
To Ensure You Are Receiving Your Dating Divas Emails Do The Following:
Be sure to add the corresponding Dating Divas email addresses to your email white list to ensure the best chance
of receiving our content and updates.
A whitelist is a list of accepted items or persons in a set…. a list of e-mail addresses or domain names from which an e-mail blocking program will allow messages to be received.
Why is this important?
Unsolicited, unwanted advertising e-mail, commonly known as
“spam”, has become a big problem. It’s reached such proportions that most e-mail
services and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) have put some sort of blocking or
filtering system in place or begun relying on self-proclaimed blacklists to tell
the good guys from the bad.
The Dating Divas applaud their intention to protect you from
spam, but everyone agrees that the current systems for stopping spam are far
from a perfect solution. They often block e-mail that you’ve requested, but that
fits somebody’s idea of what spam looks like. The more responsible anti-spam
activists are working hard to cut down on these “false positives”, but in the
mean time, you might unexpectedly find you’re not getting
your subscription’s content…
As it happens, there’s something you can do to keep
your subscription’s content from falling into the false positive trap.
You can fight the blacklists with a “white-list”.
White-list us now, before your delivery is interrupted.
Of course, every e-mail system is different. Below are instructions for some of the more popular ones.
If yours isn’t here, please contact your ISP’s customer service folks for their instructions. (Forward the answer to us, and we might add it!) If you’re using some sort of spam filtering or blocking software yourself (in addition to what your ISP provides), we’ve also listed instructions on how to exempt your subscription from some of the more popular of those programs.
