We will not be publishing the “Tip of the Day” today. Hotmail (Microsoft) has been blocking the notification we send, that the current edition is now available online. They say "Mail rejected by Windows Live Hotmail for policy reasons. Reasons for rejection may be related to content with spam-like characteristics or IP/domain reputation problems." We are careful not to spam and always run the notification through the Spam Checker at: http://spamcheck.sitesell.com/, which reports it as having zero spam before we send it out. We do not routinely send out the newsletter as email, but simply a notification that it is online. If someone wants to receive it as email, they must specifically request to receive it in addition to the notification.
I can understand that the email edition might be blocked. You can't talk about business and current events or warnings about scams without triggering some spam filters. That is why we send out the notification which is absolutely spam free. To prove this, copy one of our notifications, this one, or a past one if you still have it, and got to http://spamcheck.sitesell.com/ and check for yourself.

Could it be that they don’t like my opinions on National Healthcare or other things discussed in the Friday Rant, which may be different than theirs? If this is happening to me, I wonder how many other people are having their emails simply disappear. Could this simply be another takeover of our rights to free speech. Could MSNBC simply be trying to oppress anyone who disagrees with their views? A good friend of ours, who happens to enjoy our newsletter, actually called me and said she wasn't receiving it. She has MSN as her email provider. Gee - do you think there is a connection here? MSN (Microsoft Network) - Microsoft Hotmail - MSNBC - Hmm
Is the Government controlling the Media, or is the Media controlling the Government? Are they both trying to control the world. Does anyone give a damn? Wake up people, and try to stop this idiocy before it is too late.
Isn’t it time that we the people are heard?
