Spam has become a pandemic. Because of the constant onslaught of spam email, legitimate and desired messages are not being received. This is, unfortunately, a burden we all must take on because of the irresponsibility of spammers. Because of such a proliferation of "false positives," or incorrectly filtered email that is desired by the recipient, it is essential that you learn how to white list trusted senders. You probably already use an anti-spam program or service, or an email account at an email provider who offers this option. Please take a moment to add the LED Digest to your safe list, or permitted email sender list. It's a quick, simple process and involves adding our sending address (From:) to your whitelist, safelist, or list of priviledged senders. This process is known as whitelisting a publication. If you need any help with this or have questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
