Post subject: New email address (or no email address...) for Posetteforever
<img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/koo-koo.gif" alt="" /> Hi friends <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/group.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> Today I changed the usual email address of the site ( posetteforever [at] spamcop.net ) to an empty address ( donotreply [at] posetteforever.com ) . <br /> <br /> Nothing will change for you, but from now you'll receive the notifications from this address. The old one is still available and the visitors or someone that wants to contact me will find it in the pop up help page that appears to visitors on the left side of the front page (when you're not logged in you see what I'm talking about). The old time friends should have one of my email addresses so there is not a problem. <br /> <br /> Now about the reasons (you can even NOT read the next boring part <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> ): <br /> <br /> posetteforever [at] spamcop.net is a real address and I needed to keep it "whitelisted" but I was getting about 20 spam messages a day on that address (most of them about magic pills for my private parts <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/redembarrassed.gif" alt="" /> ... ) and the address of the sender is the same ( posetteforever [at] spamcop.net) so I couldn't apply a filter. <br /> <br /> This happens because a lot of viruses take control of the address book of the email program (outlook etc.) from the users that made an account here and then the spammers begin to send crap... <br /> <br /> But the last hit happened yesterday: I receive the usual spam, read the title and directly send it to report with the service that I'm using. Today I received a complain from our new server provider telling me that I was sending spam <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/new_shocked.gif" alt="" /> ... <br /> <br /> After a couple of hours spent on the log I found out that a spammer from India found the "contact us" page, that page could be used to send an email to the address of the site (to the admin...) so I received a spam message from the site and complained against myself <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/connie_ashamed.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/lmao.gif" alt="" /> ... <br /> <br /> So I deleted the "contact us" page, I'll modify it in the weekend, anyway an user that needs help can contact me, as I said, using the popup page that appears on the front page. <br /> <br /> The new address of the site (donotreply [at] posetteforever.com) goes to nowhere, every email sent to it is deleted, it's needed only to send you notifications (reply to your messages, comments to your pictures (I hope they are still working <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_think.gif" alt="" /> ) , new personal messages). <br /> <br /> As usual I want to let you know that the site is protected by an antispam system, that actually works very well, but it can happen that your IP is temporarily on a "black list" so you may be redirected to a "stange page" <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_shifty.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_think.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_eh.gif" alt="" /> and can't surf the site (It happened to me too <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/redembarrassed.gif" alt="" /> , Alcide a lot of times and the last one was Andreas). You can check if your email address is on a black list on the site <a class="post-url" href="http://www.projecthoneypot.org" target="_blank">http://www.projecthoneypot.org</a> (that is a free site that help us protecting Posetteforever <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/TFR718 (6).gif" alt="" /> ). If you've a dynamic IP, it's enough to shut down your modem or router for some minutes in order to have a new one, and everything will be ok, if not, contact me, I can write an exception, but I won't turn down the system because this is the one that keeps Posetteforever clean as a daisy <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/5badair.gif" alt="" /> ... <br /> <br /> So this is what I have to say, I want only to let you know that I'm at the finish line with my train driver school and I'll have more time to dedicate to the site and hopefully for some fun with Poser soon <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> Tormie

Good work, boss... <br /> <br /> ...but may I suggest that after your exams, when you have a little time to relax: RELAX! <br /> <br /> You'll have earned it.
