Whitelist our e-mail services
to prevent unwanted spam blocking!
|
|
Unwanted, unsolicited, advertising
e-mail, commonly called 'spam', has become a huge problem. It's
reached such staggering numbers that most e-mail services and
Internet Service Providers (ISPs) have resorted to putting some sort
of blocking or filtering system in place or have begun relying on
self-proclaimed blacklists to tell the good guys from the
bad.
We acknowledge their intention to
protect us from spam, but everyone agrees that the current systems
for stopping spam are not even close perfect solution. They all too
often block important e-mails that you've requested, but that fits
somebody's idea of what spam looks like. The more responsible
anti-spam companies and activists are working hard to cut down on
these 'false positives', but in the mean time, you might
surprisingly find you're not getting the e-mails you subscribed
to...
As it happens, there's something
you can do to keep the e-mails you value from being marked as a
false positive trap. You can fight the blacklists with a
'white-list'. White-list every new subscription right at the start,
before your delivery is interrupted.
|
One thing you can do on any e-mail system you're using is to add
the address in the "From" line of the
desired e-Letter to your address book. This address
is
questions@21stcenturyinvestoreducation.com
|
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 department for their instructions. 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 valued e-mails from some of the more popular of those
programs.
To find instructions for your
e-mail provider or software, scroll down or use the menu on the
right.

For AOL version 9.0: you can make sure that valued e-mail is delivered
to your Inbox by adding the sending address to your "People I Know"
list.
-

e-mail.

Click the Add Address button (over on the right) to add that
sender to your "People I Know" list.

sending it does the job of putting the address into your "People I Know"
list--and that's what matters.

need to set your Mail Controls instead. Here's how:
-
Go to Keyword Mail Controls.

For AOL version
8.0: Select Allow

Many popular e-mail programs, including older
versions of Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora,
and Netscape Mail,
don't provide a convenient way for you to white-list the folks you want to
receive e-mail from. If you're using this sort of e-mail system and you
either aren't getting e-mail you value or want to make sure you continue
to receive it in the future, you can do something about it.
Contact the customer service people or the
postmaster at the company that provides your e-mail or Internet connection
(your ISP). Explain to them what subscriptions are e-mail that you asked
for (or paid for) and
value. Ask them if they can white-list the sender. (Unfortunately, some
e-mail systems don't allow white-listing.) If they do white-list, they'll
probably ask you for some information about the publisher. Here's what to
tell them:
-
Sending Address: If your ISP asks for the "sender" or "from" address,
give them the address questions@21stcenturyinvestoreducation.com
-
Domain: If your ISP needs to know the domain 21st
Century Investor Education is mailing from, try forwarding them one
of our e-mails. The domain is in the "header" of every e-mail. If that
doesn't work, you'll have to contact the publisher to ask them what domain
they're sending from. There might be more than one, especially if you have
multiple subscriptions.
IP Address: If your ISP asks for
the sending IP address, try forwarding them one of our e-mails. The
"originating IP" is in the "header" of every e-mail. If that doesn't work,
you'll have to contact us to ask what IP address we're sending from.
Thank you for white-listing us.
