Attention AOL users
Mar 03, 2006 - Contributed By dB Masters
Regarding AOL's new Goodmail Certification Program and how it may, or may not, affect your HRC experience.

AOL, in the next 30 days, is starting their Goodmail Certification Program. What this is is a program that mass emailers will pay AOL for the "Goodmail Token" to allow their email to reach their users.

While popular opinion on this varies I don't plan to get into that. let's just say it's controversial at best.

The only reason I am bringing it up is to let users know this is happening, and may or may not affect HRC generated emails. If you subscribe to the newsletter, subscribe to forum topics, user the profile comments feature or any other such features I can not be certain that you will continue to recieve those emails as they may be blocked by AOL's Goodmail filter.

One thing I can say is that I am surely not paying for their stupid token, so, my best advice would be to tell you, if you do have and AOL email address in your profile, change it to another email address if you want to make sure you continue to get the stuff you want.

I am not sure how the Goodmail filter works, so I don't know if it will affect HRC or not, but wanted to bring the issue to your attention.
