Site Reference Forums

Hey guys and gals,

Need a little favor from everyone… as the spam issues continues to get worse, email service providers (hotmail, Gmail, AOL, etc) keep tightening up their email delivery programs which makes it hard on us (Site-Reference) to get your newsletter delivered to your inbox

Since these email service providers have no way of actually verifying that you have indeed subscribed to Site Reference they are left to make educated “guesses”…

These guesses are based on a few factors (which we are working on) but one of the main ones needs YOUR HELP:

i'd really appreciate it if you could  add Site-Reference to your SAFE SENDER list (or added us to your contacts list)

So if you have a couple seconds (and that’s really all it takes) and wouldn’t mind helping out Site-Reference, could you please add us to your contacts list?

It’s real easy- all you have to do is copy/paste the from address of the last Site-Reference Newsletter you received and add it to your list…

HERE ARE STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTION DEPENDING ON WHAT EMAIL PROGRAM YOU USE:

Note: If you signed up for the newsletter within the last 9 months you will be receiving it from Newsletter@Site-Reference.com . If you’ve been with us for longer then 9 months you will be receiving it from Newsletter@Site-ReferenceNEWSLETTER.com


AOL

Go to keyword:  Mail Controls.
Select the screen name we're sending your Site-Reference to.

Open your latest Site-Referencee-mail.
Click the Add Address button (on the right) to add to your "People I Know" list.

Alternatively, you can just send an e-mail to: Newsletter@Site-ReferenceNewsletter.com, and that will add us to your "People I Know" list automatically. To do this:

Open your latest Site-Referencee-mail.
Click the Reply button (it's in the top right corner).
A new email window opens with the wrong address in the "Send To" box.
Replace the address in the Send To box with: Newsletter@Site-ReferenceNewsletter.com
Click Send Now (in the top right corner).
Even if the e-mail you send doesn't get through to us, the act of sending it does the job of putting us into your "People I Know" list.
