Why haven't I received any emails from the SDA?
Spam! Spam! Spam! We've corresponded with a number of you who have not gotten our recent mailings. It seems that many Internet Service Providers are blocking spam much more aggressively over the last few months. Since our mailings go out to hundreds of people, some of these ISPs treat it like spam and throw it away. When this happens, you don't get the mail and we don't get any error message. The mail just disappears!
We would like to keep you up to date on Shaolin-Do events through email! If you haven't been getting our emails, then there might be several possible reasons:
- We don't have your email address! If you would like to receive information about Shaolin-Do events through email, then please send a note to webmaster@shaolin-do.com. We won't deluge you with mail, usually just one or sometimes two a month.
- We don't have your correct email address! We might have an old address for you or we could have typed your address in incorrectly. If you're not getting these notes (and you want to), then please send a note to webmaster@shaolin-do.com.
- We could be emailing to your correct address, but your Internet Service Provider is treating our notes as spam. There might not be much you can do about this, but we're working on ways to make our mail look less like spam.
- If you have spam blocking software on your own personal computer, please make sure you allow our mail through!
Note: sometimes your mail to us might be blocked as spam, too! If you send us email and don't get a response within a couple of days, then either we didn't get it or our answer didn't make it back to you. Call the Sin Thé Karate School at (859) 275-2148 and leave a message, or send a letter to:
