How to ensure you always
get our newsletter
Everyone hates spam!
Almost every ISP uses
filtering methods in an
attempt to block
spam. Although this is
well-intentioned (and badly needed), these
filters can also block some of the e-mail you
really want.
To make sure that the
Parenting With Dignity newsletter is not
filtered into your "junk" or "bulk" folder,
you should
add parentingwithdignity.com to your approved senders list.
We will show you how to do this below, but first... if you are having
issues with spam, you REALLY need to consider a suggestion...
Everyone hates spam. Especially me!
I have been using the Internet since 1993. My
email addresses are on every spam list in the universe. Until I
solved my spam problem, I was getting upwards of 1,000 spam emails
EVERY day. Today, I only get the mail I want!We all get
spam, but there are some that your children just shouldn't
see. Much of the trash that pours into our inboxes would make a
sailor blush and our children shouldn't be exposed to it. No amount
of legislation is going to solve this problem any time soon - this is
something we have to do for ourselves. Almost all spam is generated
by computers, not people and most return addresses are phony. In
most cases, there's nobody to prosecute (or they host offshore).
In our opinion, the only way to receive the mail you want and block
the junk is to catch the spam BEFORE it gets to your inbox. Then
ask the sender to prove they are a real person and not a machine.
We use
spamarrest
and it has changed our life online.
We highly recommend
it.
How to change your mailbox filters
AOL: Add the parentingwithdignity.com
domain to your address book.
Hotmail/MSN: Add
the webmaster@parentingwithdignity.com
to your safe list. The safe list can be accessed
via the "Options" link to the right of
the main menu tabs.
- Then click on "Custom Filters" and
- Click "New Filter"
- Click "Advanced Filter"
- Add the
webmaster@parentingwithdignity.com to
the "From Address" selector
Yahoo! Mail: There are two ways to add PWD to
your safe senders list. One, check your 'bulk'
folder, open our newsletter and click on the "this
is not Spam" link next to the "From" field.
To add our domain for future newsletters, do the
following:
- Click "Mail Options"
- Click "Filters"
- Click "Add"
- Use "From Header" and add "parentingwithdignity.com"
Other ISPs: Try
adding our domain parentingwithdignity.com or our
newsletter's "From"
address to your address book.
If that isn't possible, try moving the
message to your "Inbox" and
forwarding the message to yourself. This often is a
default approval process.
As a last resort, call or e-mail your ISP's
support department and ask
them how you can be certain to receive
e-mail from parentingwithdignity.com.
