Can I suggest that you also send them an email telling they have been un-subscribed. That way people who do it accidentally get told.

Yes, it's automatic when they use the unsubscribe link in our email. But otherwise, no -- because if they are rejecting our email or marked as spam, then sending an additional email to them will just cause a loop behavior, so its performed silently on the condition of not using our links (webhook from Mandrill, registering rejection/bounce/spam).

I don't know if you remember but I accidentally marked something from here as span. Then a few days later I posted in this thread that I wasn't receiving notifications any more and this must be a bug. Just saying accidents do happy!

That's because Mandrill quarantines any email address for 1-year period when they mark us as spam. Spam is super bad for our reputation.

And it takes manual interaction for me to fix it, each time it happens, which is a lot. Which is why I started to build this framework bridge, because the next step (afte I return from vacation), is to notify the user of the situation where their address is blocked (as a result of them marking us as spam), and then automating the removal of the blacklist via Mandrill API call.

Anyone know by chance why bmcharts.com is offline? It asks me to provide a login instead of showing the homepage for 2 days now. I kind of like it to use as the place to share charts from in my journal...

Not sure why it's offline, but I don't believe it to be related to FIO in any way.

Oh really? I always thought the BM was for @Big Mike
Thanks for replying @xplorer - I'll stick to using attachments for now.

Actually, I may stand corrected.

I just checked a cache copy of that site and it does reference Big Mike's forums and blog, so you may be right after all.

@Big Mike

is bmcharts.com related and, if so, do you still own it?

Hi,

No one used it, so I locked it down to prevent abuse.

Am existing images are still there and will remain forever.

Sorry, you are the only person that I know of that actually used it.

I don't want anything that is bad for FIO's reputation, so I guess this is a good thing, but here's a big concern I have: I have never, in my entire online life, marked any site's message as spam. But Gmail often does it for me, based on criteria that I don't really know anything about. (They say it's because the email is similar to other spam messages they have seen in the past.)

Because of this, I frequently look to see if I have anything new in my spam folder, and decide if it looks like spam to me or not. Usually I agree with Gmail -- it looks like an obvious sales come-on from some site I have never heard of, etc. -- but sometimes, in fact it may happen a few times a month, Gmail seems to have just spotted some text that it didn't like in the header and that was enough to call it spam. Sometimes it's from a site I want to continue to get email from. All of those I'll return to my inbox and then delete them from there if I don't want them, so they won't reflect on the site's reputation (unless they do it a lot and they piss me off.)

My point is that being counted as spam is not necessarily something the actual user did. If by chance FIO sends out an email that Gmail doesn't like, I think this change will wipe out my subscriptions, which are many, and not because of any action I took.

Is this a realistic concern? It seems to me that it would be.

Bob.

Yes, I use it for all my image hosting needs. I created it 9 years ago or so with the site, because we needed some extra features.

I still personally use it for FIO on a near constant basis, but since no one else was, I locked it down a couple days ago to just secure it from potential abuse.

I didn't think anyone would notice lol.

All images that exist there are protected and in no danger or getting removed, don't worry anyone.

Plus, FIO has a built-in cache, so all external images are automatically copied to our server, ensuring no broken links ever...
@xplorer, yes before your time but BM as in Big Mike.
