Heads-Up: Big change coming to my Tech Tips Newsletter

Posted on September 7, 2021

I’ve been using a service called Constant Contact to write and deliver my daily Tech Tips Newsletter emails for about two years now, and for the most part it has worked out fine.

But recently I’ve been receiving reports from subscribers that they’ve stopped receiving my emails.

I did some investigating and found out that this seems to be a new, but quickly growing problem with emails sent via Constant Contact.
