Hiya Clif,
This is known as "Whitelisting" .. and while I understand it, I hate it.

>>;While processing an online donation to a nonprofit I volunteer for, this issue came up. A new members email with membership info was "returned" with this message. This means that unless the org "jumps through hoops"; they can not send the normal semi-automated email membership greeting. The general feeling I have heard is that anyone who uses this kind of "service" deserves not to get any email they are rejecting. While spam is a pain, personally, even with the lightest spam "filtering" the percentage of good stuff put in the spam file is too high to be acceptable (and that means you have to look through the spam anyway). It seems like you might as well not use email at all as to use this kind of approved sender approach.>>
