Thank goodness that worked. LOTS of coding and configuration going on behind the scenes. I'm REALLLLLLLLLY hoping it hasn't ended up in anyone's junk mail this time.

Good news and bad I'm afraid, good news is I got the email, bad news is it went into junk. Sorry Edit* it was a Hotmail account if that's any use to solving the junk issue? I've changed my details to my Gmail address as that is what I normally use and seems to have worked for others.

I used to work in email marketing and it's such a dark art getting mass emails out without them going straight into spam folders.
It could be the wording being used, it could be that the server is only recently being used for emails and hasn't in the past, which means it needs to build up 'trust', it could be that someone else from the same provider has been spamming emails and no one will be able to get emails out effectively because of that one person.
I remember we had a guy send out an email twice by accident both batches went to the same list which was about 600k each, so roughly 1.2million in total. We had so many complaints and a lot of people just reported them as junk. It took us weeks before we recovered from it.

I sent out a second round of welcome emails on Friday to new members. Will be sending out reminder emails to people that haven't updated their info hopefully over the next couple of days.
Then a follow up all email in the next week or so.

I recieved the first email and followed the instructions. I didn't recieve another on Friday other than the newsletter.
Would it be reasonable to have an online email archive? When they are sent out, an online version (linked to and protected by forum account permissions) is uploaded and a notification placed on the forum. I'm sure you can also automatically send a PM on here at the same time?
Just thinking of catch-all workarounds.

I think we may end up with Club forum on here, but for only broadcast of club updates to club people rather than a separate discussion area if that makes sense?

I am unclear as to wether this email is only for those who didn’t get the first one (and those who have joined since), or if it’s meant to go out to all members?
If the former, as you were. If the latter, I didn’t get it either.

I am unclear as to wether this email is only for those who didn’t get the first one (and those who have joined since) THIS! The people who were waiting for a while for theirs were the first couple of people to join after I'd done the email export list (which was about a week before I sent the first mail due to computers so I can see their confusion). There are a few people (about twenty) that didn't give me a forum name from the first email and I'm making the assumption that it has gone to their spam folder, as that seems to be the case for a reasonable amount of people from the first email (and a handful from the second). So Club Forum will need to be made for communicating stuff, but in a chicken and egg kind of situation I need people's forum names to give them access, but if they don't have the welcome mail they won't be able to give that to me. But I'll work around that

For those twenty, or everyone as a catch all, you could include the URL for the forum or the form to enter your forum user name in the postage mail out when the stickers are sent.
Also while I’m here I can’t remember how the discount on the shop works - is it automatically applied to the account that the club RR membership is through?
Just thinking in terms of the RRW 2020 tickets or does “non show products” mean discount doesn’t apply to ticket purchases?
Cheers

Still nothing in spam, (daily checks), or in box. I'm NobbynoMates. I'll just sit over here in the corner, I don't care about your silly club, no honestly I don't.
