Jackson, TN | How about your Church's newsletter? AOL and Yahoo users (some at least) will doubtless have subscribed to newsletters.
How is it going to go over when they don't receive the email because the sender didn't pay AOL or Yahoo to let it through? | |

However, add the sender to the address book, and it will be delivered to the inbox without hitting any filter. thats not currently working with most aol users.. we send maybe 1500 emails a month to AOL users (and about as much to yahoo) and aol used to block 90% of them until we got on their bulk white list.. now that that's going away, i fear most if not all of our messages will get blocked before the users even see them. (Note: there are transacional [to verify signup, new message or post waiting, etc..] and 100% confirmed opt-in/requested messages)

| Re: How about your Church's newsletter? Well, yea.. I am the same way. I registered my servers and follow AOL's BM rules and have for a long time. If you want to bulk mail, opt-in style, to any of the major ISPs, you're going to have to play by their rules.
However, you stated that you fear that most of your messages will now get blocked. You either need to read the article more closely, or in AOL's case read their documentation updates, your messages will be handled the same as they are now. However, if you want to PAY them, your messages are guaranteed to bypass the spam filters and go directly to the mail box. Again, all other messages WILL continue to be handled the same way and be scrutinized byt the spam filters. | |

| Re: How about your Church's newsletter? You are incorrect and is the new AOL speak. Once the white list is gone, any bulk mailers that don't pay will be bounced. How can it be the same if the white list no longer exists?

| Re: How about your Church's newsletter? You are incorrect, Sir.
The white list is also for standard ISPs that tend to send large amounts of mail into AOL by their subscribers as well.
The new format that AOL is offering is targeted towards bulk mailing services. The white list, as I was told by our contact at AOL was that the white list will remain. | |

| Re: How about your Church's newsletter? Not according to AOL's own press release. Don't fall for AOL's backpeddling. I'd bet this money grab adds up to hundreds of millions of dollars. The white list is to be completely gone by June 1st. Just Google search it; don't listen to AOL; they can't be trusted.
