Activation message sent to junk by Wally96333 on 11-23-2007 at 05:02 AM


Hi again;

When I was sent my account activation message, it went into
my junk folder for my hotmail account.

... just in case anyone might be interested.

thats because hotmail's spam filter sucks :(, you'll just have to live with it, or swap to something better :P

So do they filter mail from lots of other boards/sites?

I hope our server isn't actually spamming people... :p

It can't be, because you secured it properly...



...right? :p

Well, you might be able to send lots of mail by abusing features of the board. I'll look into it sometime, and maybe gather some stats of how much mail the board sends. :p

AFAIK, there's nothing else on the server that could send spam, other than the Spanish board. =p

Could be... but it's hard to tell. =/ Like I said, I'll look into it and find out if there is actually a problem, other than Hotmail being crap. :p
