texte = Govinda, The amount of mail you send is only one factor used in making a spam decision. I used to send out thousands of emails for my clients with no trouble at all. Currently over 94% of the email stream is spam, so if you send to someone who uses msn, earthlink, mac.com, etc., and they report your email to their provider as spam, then no one on your server will be able to send to that domain, until you convince them to take you off their list. It only takes one of your recipients to forget who you are and mark you as a spammer. If your email is important, you need to send it through an IP that does not effect your server. -Jeff On Sep 6, 2009, at 1:17 PM, Govinda wrote: >> On Sep 6, 2009, at 8:45 AM, Govinda wrote: >> >>> Happy Sunday! >>> >>> We use 3rd party listservers for the big stuff, but I have a >>> small list of customers (~500) who we need to send a message to >>> very occasionally.
