Subject: DO NOT MARK OUR WINSERVER.COM MAIL OR  IP AS SPAM
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="------------010806010700050006020400"

Folks,

If I sound/read like I am pissed, aggravated, well, I am....  please 
hear me out.

We are a small business. We are here to serve and support our 
customers, especially with electronic mail.  I work very hard at this, 
and hopefully, god willing, we will be able to get back on track with 
advanced Wildcat! development and improved our customer support, which 
I personally think is high quality.  We try.

If you are on any our support list and you are getting mail that 
concerns you and/or you don't like the sender, please contact me so I 
can address the issue, but please DO NOT mark or tag us as a 
"spammers" with your ESP based mail readers ike with Yahoo.com, 
Aol.com, Outlook.com, gmail.com and any other ESP domain MUA or GUI 
mail reader.

When you do that, you are causing a serious network wide BLOCK and 
Tortious Interference on our entire mail system and all our domains. 
It will stop customers from getting their support mail, especially our 
high-end business and enterprise customers that helps subsidize the 
support for non-enterprise customers.

You might think or say

"But I am not tagging winserver.com as spammers, I am tagging that 
other guy in the winserver support list spamming me with dupes and junk!"

No, when you mark our list mail, those big high-scale ESPs learn by 
reading the RETURN-PATH which is not the poster address you have a 
problem with but the LIST admin address at winserver.com or 
santronics.com.  It also tracks our IP and that gets added to the RBL 
sites.

So what happens is we get this:

The same stupid error for yahoo.com and aol.com accounts.

Not even my brother-in-law, at xxxxxxxx@aol.com, can get his mail sent 
by my wife, she is pissed and so I am.

The only good thing is that Yahoo.com and Aol.com is saying "look, you 
can try again later." That is what the 421 code means,  try again 
later but all this gives us a negative reputation and it slows down 
our mail getting to customers.  If that was a 5yz number, that would 
of been really bad because it means a PERMANENT BLOCK.

In any case,  this is the only warning:

1) If we find that you are the reason for causing our mail network 
problem, you will be permanently banned from winserver.com and any 
other our email support mailing list. Direct email support will be 
allowed.

2) DO NOT EXPORT/IMPORT/GATE any of our support conferences, mailing 
list or forums into another network.  If you are going to use QWK to 
download our forums for your QWK mail readers like OLX or Silver 
Xpress or another QWK reader, that is fine, but if you plan to network 
into your BBS, DO NOT IMPORT/UPLOAD mail packets back into our mail 
system.

And finally, please, I can't emphasize this enough:

3) If you do get an email from our system, from our mailing list, that 
you are having an issue with, please, contact us at 
support@santronics.com, so we can directly address the issue. 
Overall, please do not TAG, MARK or BLOCK our IPs and domains by 
marking a list user you are having a problem with but end up block our 
company mail operations. Not good.

Thank you.
