Why
Is WhiteListing Email Important?
A whitelist is a list of accepted items or persons in a
set…. a list of e-mail addresses or domain names from
which an e-mail blocking program will allow messages to
be received.
Unsolicited, unwanted
advertising e-mail, known as "SPAM", has become a
huge problem. It's reached such outrageous proportions
that most e-mail services and Internet Service Providers
(ISPs) have put some sort of blocking or filtering
system in place or begun relying on self-proclaimed
blacklists to tell the good guys from the bad.
We applaud their
intention to protect you from spam, but everyone agrees
the current systems for stopping SPAM have a long ways
to go before providing anything close
to a near-perfect solution. They often block e-mail that
you've requested, but that fits somebody's idea of what
SPAM looks like. The more responsible anti-spam
activists are working hard to cut down on these "false
positives", but in the mean time, you might unexpectedly
find you're not getting your email from us.
Here's how you can fight
back to make sure you get the emails you want to
receive!
You can fight the blacklists with a "white-list".
White-list us (gjwresponse.com and georgeculp.com) now,
before your delivery is interrupted!
Of course, every e-mail
system is different. So we have included instructions
for some of the more popular ones. If yours isn't here,
please contact your ISP's customer service folks for
their instructions. (Forward the answer to us, and we
might add it!) If you're using some sort of spam
filtering or blocking software yourself (in addition to
what your ISP provides), we've also listed instructions
on how to exempt your emails from gjwresponse.com and
georgeculp.com from some of the more popular of those
programs.
