    AOL Email Addy - Unfair!!

    I just would like to make my objection in the fact that I have a AOL email addy, and felt penalised in having to change my email addy, just because some person decided to place "Casinomeister Forum" emails unto their spam folder.

    I for one read most of Casinomeister Forum emails and have never place it in my AOL "spam" folder, therefore felt unjustified that I should have to change my email, because of some other ppl's action

    Hope my objection counts here!!!

    Unfortunately there's nothing that Bryan can do about it, AOL was the one who decided to treat Casinomeister mail as spam.

    AOL sucks anyway... you did yourself a favor by getting a different email address.

    I agree. I have GMail and it's the best free one out there.

    No offense but if you are from the UK, why would you voluntarily pay for something American (AOL)?

    You also have The Yahoo Mail that is free.
    I had AOL for 6 years because I did'nt know better.
    And at this time you will never lose your AOL acct because that's free now too.And what a treat it is looking in my AOL and finding 250 Emails a day.

    It's more than that. If I read his post correctly, then someone actually complained to aol that emails they received from Bryan were spam.

    I have to jump on the bandwagon here about gmail. I use it and have ever since it came out, and I love it! http://gmail.com

    At least now you can sign up without an invite...
    Operators: If you don't know what Transparency means, then here you go.....now how about practicing it?

    Transparency, as used in the humanities and in a social context more generally, implies openness, communication, and accountability. It is a metaphorical extension of the meaning a "transparent" object is one that can be seen through. ...

    AOL is a mindless beast, and it's nothing but a pain in the ass for every webmaster.

    It was the last complaint that was the last straw. I've received about 20 in the last few months. All of these include members who have subscribed to threads or are receiving administrative emails - and they are too lazy to access their account and turn these off. When they put these emails into the spam filter - casinomeister.com gets reported as spam which is about a bogus as one can get (these members had requested these emails).

    I recommend gmail - I've never had problems there, and it's free.

    I couldn't agree more.

    I feel a rant coming on...

    @asidea, I don't think your going to find too many good websites out there right now that will allow people to register and have an account using an AOL email address.

    AOL's bogus SPAM reporting has actually hurt far too many innocent websites for smart site owners to continue to accept AOL email addresses.

    After you get a call, threating to pull the plug on your business, because of some bull shit SPAM report from AOL... well lets just say, it don't make you feel all warm and cozy inside. (Been there... Done that)

    Websites are also hurt when AOL makes a bogus SPAM report and the website gets their domain name (business name) on a email blacklist where emails from your domain will NOT be received by about 95% of the people on earth.

    BTW - So far the real evil email spammers are having a heyday (in case you haven't noticed). This bogus AOL SPAM reporting is not hurting them a bit...

    So... If you want to object to someone, object to AOL their the ones that have forced this kind of a reaction from website owners.

    and get yourself a gmail account for goodnes sake...
    Beware... Killer Teddy in the house...
