We work hard to avoid your recipient’s spam folder
There's no point creating a great looking, wonderfully worded email if it’s going to wind up in your recipients’ spam folders. That’s why we go to a lot of trouble to keep the myMailman delivery servers whitelisted with major ISP's. This helps our customers’ emails get through the spam filters of major ISP's, and get read.
We even offer an optional spam and design testing tool
Pre-testing your email design and text in every email client in cyberspace just isn’t a practical option - but our optional design and spam testing tool is. With one click of a button, you can test your email against the most popular desktop spam filters and a number of key spam firewalls that serve as gatekeepers for most ISP's and large corporations.
The content of your email determines its chances of being flagged as spam. So, the tool does more than simply scan your content for red flag ‘spammy’ words; it passes your email through real spam filters and, should your email fail, it tells you why. This gives you an opportunity to amend your content to minimize the chance of your email being flagged as spam. You are given this option every time you create a campaign.
Whitelisted servers… mmm, nice!
Major ISP's, including AOL and Yahoo!, have whitelisted the myMailman delivery servers. Our servers are also integrated into spam reporting systems for other large ISP's, such as Hotmail and MSN. These arrangements help us keep our servers free from senders not following ‘best practice’ and, therefore, give your emails the best chance of being delivered.
Blacklists bad… we check ‘em daily!
We monitor literally hundreds of blacklists every day. If we ever find one of our servers listed (and, by the way, this can happen to perfectly behaved, permission-based email servers), it is removed from our delivery cluster instantly and we resolve any issues on our customers’ behalf.
We help our users comply with best practice
If you become a myMailman user, you must include a single-click unsubscribe link with every email. Subscribers must have the option of removing themselves quickly and easily. Our team also verifies all large lists to ensure they comply with our permission policy. We also require all users to abide by out Anti-spam policy.
