Email Taglines
Answered by:
Question:
Our residential department has a tagline on all emails, advertising a new delivery channel. When our email goes outside it comes with standard text about "If you have received this in error......"Can I link to our website for the paragraph on CAN-SPAM and opting out of these advertisements? Otherwise, our email communications are getting cluttered. Also.....any ideas on tracking emails to the opt out people? We have a system for our mass mailings, but are still debating how to stop the emails with taglines.
