Spam is Evil

Thursday, 30 October 2008 10:00 by Jason Glover

We estimate that probably 1 in 4 emails we send to our customers end up in spam filters. That's right, a quarter! At least.

Spam filters are a nuisance for us because the "semi intelligent" spam filters built into all the popular email clients and ISPs use rules to detect potential spam and those same rules often decide that our legitimate emails to our customers are also spam.
The most annoying is when customers say they never received their Password Reset emails, only to find that it was trapped in their spam filter.

Our technical team are constantly working hard to improve upon that, but in this day and age we're fighting a battle with constantly shifting rules of engagement.

We've made some major improvements in the last 2 weeks by adopting SPF, so it will be interesting to see how much of an improvement that makes.

In the meanwhile the best advice we can give you is to add the domain teameffect.com to your address book and/or junk-filter's white list.

Peace out.
