Can I please ask that members don’t report any emails they may receive from us as “spam”.
There are basically two different types of emails you might receive from us: (1) newsletters and (2) email alerts that you have set up yourself through your preferences page.
The latter allows you to choose what sort of alerts you might receive and under what conditions, e.g. you may choose to receive an email alert when other people reply to a thread you’ve started or that you’ve posted in.
If you’re not familiar with your preferences setting, it might be worth spending a moment or two fine-tuning them to suit your own requirements.
If you find you’re getting too many email alerts, simply change your preferences.
Every newsletter email we send carries an “unsubscribe” link, too. This is how you should tell us to stop sending you newsletter emails, if you so choose.
Recently, some members have simply been hitting the “spam” button to stop getting emails from us. This hurts us a lot.
We use Amazon Web Services to process all emails on our behalf. Amazon has very low tolerance for spammers, and reporting our emails as “spam” makes it likely that they will refuse to do business with us.
Before that stage, though, putting Litopia onto a “spammers” list has a ripple effect. It puts us not just on that members’ own blacklist but on others, too – greatly inconveniencing other members here who might have set up their own email alerts. If Litopia is put onto a spammers blacklist, then other members’ email providers will route all our emails to junk mail and will not be delivered.
I know that members don’t want to hurt Litopia in this way, so please refrain from hitting the “spam” button! Use one of the methods described above if you feel you’re getting too many emails from us.
