Newsletter Followup

Wednesday, June 04, 2008 - 11:15 PM

The Sheldon Newsletter went out to all parties who signed up for it, but we had 150 bounce back as undeliverable.

If you signed up for the newsletter, but didn't get it, drop me a line to let me know, and we'll see what happened.

My first guess, though, is that you'll need to check your spam filters to see if mail from "dave@davekellett.com" has been flagged as spam. 'Cause it's not. It's totally not! :)

WHOIS says davekellett.com is registered through networksolutions. According to their blurb [internetpr...vocate.org], Network Solutions is "providing industry-leading spam protection" and "limits mass outgoing messages". Could it be a problem on your end?

In Response to Argon (#43154):

The question you have to ask first is 150 returned from just how many sent? People do change their email addresses, accounts are closed or cancelled. People enter the wrong email address through typos (you gotta love the days when fingers and keyboards don't want to communicate), or signed up with an account they have forgotten about. A lot of things could have happened - and yes, including a glitch on the mail server.

But I'm guessing that with all this awesomeness, while 150 bounces is a significant number, it's not necessarily a high enough percentage to indicate some form of system stuff-up.

Cheers from Oz.

I got the letter stating that you were going to send the letter, but that was all. Your email is in my addy book or I would not have gotten the first notice.
