Upgrade Your Email Signature with Our Fresh New Look - Check it Out!

[thechefofnorthbend]

Hey...our emails in our Sig. have a new look to them...

 

[pcROX]

I just noticed that too...there isn't a link now to immediately email someone!

 

[PampMomof3]

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm..........Greg?

 

[jrstephens]

I hadn't even noticed that. Greg was just on a Leadership thread warning us about posting our emails b/c of spam, so, I wonder what is up with this?

And I just noticed when I posted that mine is not in mine? Wonder why?

 

[jenniferknapp]

It isn't as text, it is posted as an image, that is why they look "funny" ...this way it wouldn't be easy to get spammed..

 

[jenniferp417]

Hm. I wonder why some do and some don't?It's an IMAGE, so you still have to type in the email address... so spammers can't get it... Cool!

 

[jenniferknapp]

Yep, the pain is for us, we can highlight and copy someones email address...we will have to remember it and type it in to our mail message!

If you have it in your profile, click on the "username" and opt to send an email. Just takes a little more elbow greese...

 

[jenniferknapp]

oh phew! I thought I checked that and didn't see it...maybe I checked someones profile that didn't have their email set up!

Unfortunately we live in a world where people take advantage and it's very common for spammers to use programs on sites like this that harvest emails from posts. It has already happened once here before and it was a big deal so I've tried telling everyone to not post emails, but CS has grown very large and it's beyond my control So I've automated a solution. Spammers can't harvest emails that are images and aren't likely to take the time to write down thousands of emails. It's a bit more pain for us, but trust me, you do not want to get an spam lists.

Greg,

So, eventually all of our addressed will be done like this? I have notice some are and some are not.

I know it takes a while to implement all of these changes.

Thanks for always watching out for us!!!

It should be automated on each email address. Can you show me where they are not? Excluding the directory.

 

[jenniferknapp]

Thanks Greg!!

 

[jrstephens]

I do not see my address when I post like other are. I have not seen JenniferKnapp or GillianDanielle or Sarahmarie on their's either.

 

[jenniferp417]

I think you have to add your email address to your signature before it'll show up as an image.It's not there unless you put it there.

 

[jenniferknapp]

yes! I don't have mine there, because you can just click on my name and send me an email that way.... although now I can add it to my sig!

 

[lacychef]

Thanks for always watching out for us Greg I don't have mine listed, but it's sure nice to know you're looking out for us cheffers!

You filled us in on an important item. I got spammed to death in two of my emails, hence why I changed to gmail. However my regular email got spammed, and I have to go to the webmail to clear it Not getting email at all in my rgv.rr.com; I've even called tech support.

I took Data Processing in H.S. and college, but used to have a best friend help me all the time and he's in OH and I'm way down S. TX now!! LOL
