The newsletters I got to my Gmail shows in source code.Also gmail says it came from unknown sender.

thanks Sis....looking into that ...software 
The most recent one that made it through to my Hotmail account has a whole bunch of unclickable links. The ads are ok - but none of the article headlines. It was also flagged by Hotmail as 'junk'.
C'mon you guys. Go back to the old format. You are going to be losing a lot of your users. Most of us don't have the time to try to reverse engineer something that isn't working properly.
thanks Earl,
it is basically the old format with a slightly different design to match the new look of the site
it is not a design issue with the newsletter- there are 2 issues 1) with the software that sends the NL and am working on that with the programers and
2) with email service providers and we're working with hotmail and yahoo at the moment to fix those issues (already did with aol and a bunch of others)
so we know problems exist and we are working on them
thanks

Two out of the three last NLs coming through GMail have done the same thing for me, too. The second one (April 1) came in like the olden days, pleasantly normal. Also, a bit annoying to be told, "If you are seeing this message it means that your e-mail provider does not support HTML e-mails," when the last NL did work, so it's not Google, which does support html e-mails. I get this NL through Gmail, because all my other addies tended to make SR disappear -- not necessarily into junk e-mail either.

A lot of mine disappeared into 'Never Never Land' as well. Too bad - the material is good - but I haven't read one of the newsletters for a l-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-n-n-n-g time.

And, this last one did come in normally. Hopefully, that means the problem is fixed. Thanks! 
Earl, ummm, the material is good. Took me several attempts through several e-mail accounts before finding one that hasn't white listed it, or auto-spammed it. Remember the old adage: If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try, try, try, again."

Unfortunately, most people don't have the time or won't make the effort to try to make something like this work. This means that the advertisers paying for spots in the newsletter aren't getting their money's worth.
This time, all of the following were 'unclickable' in my newsletter:
======================================
Since When has keyword order mattered?
SEO for Wordpress
Domain Registration api
Converting Traffic to Sales
Different People, Different SE's
Need Help With Your Site?
======================================
Links before and after seem ok. It never came through to my Hotmail account - not even in the Junk folder.

I have to agree with Earl.
I get mine through Hotmail and never had a problem. The time it occurred that none of the links worked was when your site went, oh, how do I say this, off line. Ok I said it. I think maybe that was the problem because since then the links worked well.
I have never had a problem with the Hotmail service and it must have been the blackout, frizzle, fused, melt down, holiday, etc SR went through very rarely though, just recently.
Sorry guys, I have been away for a while. Its good to be back.

Problem is, you don't know how many you actually missed. I subscribed through a regular e-mail account as well as Hotmail. For a long time, only a trickle of the newsletters was getting through to Hotmail. Unfortunately, the 'link' problem was never fixed - and the only way I can view links in Eudora is to turn on the Microsoft viewer.
