Well, that's a good point.
Puryear IT has hit that snag before. We finally moved to Constant Contact since they handle spam reports, unsubscribes, etc. I felt it was better to let the professionals manage our newsletters. I actually recommend them. If you have someone on your newsletter, and they report you as spam, Constant Contact will reach out to you and find out what's going on. So they're pretty serious about it. I like them.

The majority of my blatant, uninvited spam is caught with a high level of reliability. Instead, what makes e-mail less pleasant for me is mass-mail from companies I've dealt with that don't seem to acknowledge the "unsubscribe" button.

A philosophical question.. I recently sent someone I know an email about catching up and got busy afterwards and so didn't respond very promptly, and then got the following: ... Automated form touch letters. Nice, Dustin. I'm spam listing your domain to this address. You can contact me via another technology, if you actually want to interact. ... It took me a few days to get what he meant, and now that I do I wonder if spam has really made Internet users this jaded? More broadly put, has spam really killed email? --- Puryear IT, LLC - Baton Rouge, LA - http://www.puryear-it.com/ Active Directory Integration : Web & Enterprise Single Sign-On Identity and Access Management : Linux/UNIX technologies Download our free ebook "Best Practices for Linux and UNIX Servers" http://www.puryear-it.com/pubs/linux-unix-best-practices/ _______________________________________________ General mailing list [email protected] http://mail.brlug.net/mailman/listinfo/general_brlug.net
