Not Receiving Password Reset Emails?
With unsolicited and unwanted email becoming a larger problem, email services have made their spam filters more stringent. Unfortunately, these tougher guidelines for filtering can cause legitimate emails to be mistaken as spam. Most email providers do not even bother saving a copy of your received emails they deem as spam to your spam / junk folder anymore. Hotmail, Livemail, Outlook, and Yahoo tend to simply block the email and delete it completly without informing you.
Note: We send notifications to your account email address including billing, order updates, password resets, and other important correspondence.
Included in this article are instructions for checking the spam filter for major email providers. Additionally at the bottom you will find instructions for white listing us so that emails from us do not get blocked or marked as spam.
