That's 100% false.
The only good email marketing practice is to never, ever send email
advertising to existing or potential customers. This initiative
*HELPS* marketeers, especially the clue-shy ones, establish "good
email marketing practices".
I skimmed Goodmail's site, and they have no mention anywhere of
person-to-person email. It's all about businesses and "consumers".
Either they're a bunch of drones with no friends or they're implicitly
excluding personal email from their system.
It seems very odd to me that in all the press coverage, I can't
find any mention of the use case that covers 95% of email.
If Goodmail only certifies commercial email, then "Goodmail Certified"
will become a prime keyword for spam filtering. (-:
BTW, I just checked, and nobody on this list is subscribed from an AOL
address. Thank you, you're a great group!
