Where Did It Go?

So today was the first day my 48 sales representative reports went out all by themselves.  I was even in a meeting for half of the time and just heard my phone chirp once a minute as I received a copy of each.  I was very pleased that later in the afternoon one of my sales representatives happened to stop into the office.  I asked him if he got his report today, bit was surprised that he had not.  I even checked his phone myself.

So I went to our firewall, Untangle and checked the email traffic and saw that about a dozen were quarantined by it.  So, remember that sending out lots of reports in a row that all have the same text in them looks an awful lot like spam to the untrained, computerized algorithmic eye.  When you set up your email address that your event manager software is going to use, make sure it is set as a safe sender in your firewall!
